ABOUT US
Fat Ni is the nickname of our Founder Guiqiao Chen. She started her own business at the age of 14 and her footprint has continued from China to the United States. After four successful food trucks experience in New York City, Mrs. Chen expanded the business to the southern end of the United States – Texas. Her first dine-in bbq restaurant went viral in Dallas TX and more and more people start to know more about Chinese street food culture. The Founder pours her heart, soul, and Special Reserve BBQ sauce into making sure that every single item on the menu leaves you satisfied.

How long is the entire process of becoming a Fat Ni BBQ franchisee?

Becoming a franchisee is a multi-step process that includes Candidate Pre-Qualification, Due Diligence, Business Plan Review and Approval, Contract Signing, Franchise Training, Site Selection, Construction and Grand Opening. On average, the candidate approval process takes approximately 60-90 days, and the typical length of time between the signing of the Store Development Agreement and opening a Restaurant for business is 3-15 months.

Do you offer any finanical or development incentives for new franchisees?

We may offer to reduce or defer Initial Franchisee Fees in special circumstances, such as to franchisees that commit to and have the ability to develop a large number of Restaurants. Additionally, we may have special incentive offers for existing and/or new franchisees in certain new and developing markets.

We intend to offer qualified Veterans who purchase a Store Development Agreement for five or fewer Restaurants a 10% discount on the Initial Franchise Fee.
