Business Features
- Franchise Expertise - Our executive team has over 20 years of franchise experience, growing multiple franchise concepts spanning 28 countries and 6,000 locations.
- Rapidly Growing Market - Consumers are increasingly seeking out healthy options but still want convenience. In two minutes or less, we serve up acai bowls packed with superfoods containing essential vitamins and nutrients. Products that support a healthy lifestyle are on the rise: anything from fitness equipment to guided meditation apps. People are becoming more health conscious and Nautical Bowls is strongly positioned to be a healthy fast-casual industry leader.
- Low-Cost Investment - Many fast-casual franchises require an initial investment upwards of $450,000. You can own your own Nautical Bowls franchise location with an initial investment of $50,000 down and a financed balance of $150K - $200K. That makes Nautical Bowls one of the most affordable franchises in its segment! When you take into consideration our lower initial investment, simple operation, and strong unit economics, this provides an easy path for our franchisees to be multi-unit owners.
- Simple & Scalable - Our build outs are not expensive, there is not excessive overhead, and our product is not complex to create. Since day one, we have been focused on creating the most efficient way of doing everything that surrounds our business and now have extremely simplified processes for every task.
- Operational Excellence - We have fine-tuned the operations of running a healthy fast-casual concept and turned the industry profitability norms on its head (over double industry average profit margins*). Staffing for our stores is generally 1 full time manager and 12-15 part time employees. Our build outs are affordable, in fact, the typical investment for a Nautical Bowls franchise is less than 250K (franchise fee included)! There’s not a lot of overhead and our product is not complex to create. Since day one, we have been focused on creating the most efficient systems and processes to help you manage and expand your Nautical Bowls business.
- Small Footprint - With a small footprint of 600-1,200 square feet real estate is easier and faster, so our franchise partners can open their stores quickly!
