Info

In addition to the Garlic Jim's business plan, recipes, logos and other service marks, store design, branding and centralized purchase power, Garlic Jim's supports its franchisee from that time that they enter the system until grand opening. Even after opening we'll be there to assist you with franchise compliance and quality assurance. As soon as you complete the sales process and become a franchisee you are handed off to the real estate process. We pair you with a qualified expert in retail leasing to assist you in locating and qualifying a site that meets all of the Garlic Jim's criteria. Once your site is selected, you will be provided with help to negotiate a fair lease for your location. As you complete your lease negotiations you will be provided with store design assistance from one of our experienced architects who will also help you get your permits. Once your store location is identified, the lease secured and the design completed, you will work with our equipment department to place your restaurant equipment order. You will then be presented with pre-qualified contractors to help you build out your store. We choose only contractors with demonstrated experience in building out restaurant spaces and are familiar with Garlic Jim's designs and equipment. As your planned opening date approaches you will be scheduled into your 5 week training program where you will learn every aspect of running a Garlic Jim's pizza operation. We will teach you everything from hiring and training people to running the point-of-sale system to tracking inventory and marketing your store throughout your trade area. You will receive training and assistance to create a tremendous awareness of your new store long before it opens. Our grand opening process is designed to drive volumes of business not normally seen until you've been open for months. We show you how to do it in the first week! SO WHAT'S IT COST? The costs for building a Garlic Jim's store can vary widely depending on the condition of the space that is acquired for your store location. The table below will help you understand the cost breakdown for building a store. A complete explanation of the costs can be found in our Uniform Franchise Offering Circular.
