Read about these three brands to see what franchise opportunities exist

If you are interested in running a business in the Food and Beverage sector, read about Heavenly Desserts. The brand is developing, with 21 outlets currently in operation, and a desire to expand further. To start your business, you will need an initial investment of £190,000. If you plan on getting a loan to cover the costs of opening a franchise, a personal investment of 30 to 50% of the total amount will usually be required. For Heavenly Desserts, the minimum personal investment is £110,000. Given these higher startup costs, this is an opportunity best suited for most established franchisees with greater access to financial resources. Also, if you can't cover the startup costs alone, you may be able to benefit from financial assistance.

Baguette Express is an interesting investment opportunity in the Food and Beverage sector. First launched in 1999, the brand now has 21 years of experience, making it a leader in the field. By joining its current 38 franchisees, you would become a part of a growing brand network. You will need to invest £60,000 to open your own Baguette Express business. At least £30,000 of this should come from your own personal investment. Given these higher startup costs, this opportunity is less suitable for first-time franchisees. If eligible, you might be entitled to financial aid.

Lastly, take a look at Wiltshire Farm Foods, another competitive Food and Beverage franchise. This brand is expanding, counting 80 locations across the country. By investing in this established brand, you could be eligible for financial aid. Visit our website for details.
