About Paciugo Italian Gelato

Ciao a tutti! We welcome you to explore this opportunity we offer to join the Paciugo family! Franchisees share our vision of introducing authentic Italian gelato throughout the United States, and we believe Paciugo franchise ownership is an attractive business opportunity. Franchises are available with Paciugo throughout the United States. A Proven Product Our history offers a glimpse into the possibilities at Paciugo, beginning in 2000 when the first Paciugo gelateria opened at West Lovers Lane in Dallas, Texas. Paciugo quickly developed a loyal following, and by 2004 had a local presence with eight stores and kiosks operating in the Dallas Metroplex. Paciugo's success is grounded in our commitment to the authentic Italian gelato tradition. We do not sacrifice our product for cheaper or faster alternatives, and our customers recognize this. That is why our customer survey results in 2005 rated Paciugo gelato higher than premium ice cream food service concepts in the categories of better health, lower fat, superior taste, and higher quality. Purchasing Power We have direct access to the best Italian suppliers for the highest quality and most cost effective ingredients and machinery. A Good BrandPaciugo is a trusted brand because we stand firm behind our motto, Ante Lucrum Nomen "Reputation before Profit." Most of our early franchisees are long-time Paciugo customers or had been Paciugo employees. As our franchisee, you can rest assured that you are representing a first-class and honest brand.

About Angel Berry

As a result of International expansion, our clients are now seeking to appoint UK Franchisees and one Master Developer for all country regions worldwide. IF YOU ARE LIVING IN THE UK WITH CONNECTIONS ABROAD BY WAY OF FRIENDS, FAMILY OR BUSINESS PARTNERS THEN IT WOULD BE GREAT TO MEET UP AND DISCUSS THE POSSIBILITIES OF YOU BEING APPOINTED AS THE EXCLUSIVE MASTER DISTRIBUTOR FOR YOUR RESPECTIVE COUNTRY. This is a rare opportunity to build a business empire in your country with a national chain of Frozen Yogurt experiences; we say experiences, because that's what our customers are met with when they enter our premises. Grown men and women are turned into children again, as they explore the endless list of flavours to create their own 'Angel Berry' tasting experience......and as far as the children are concerned; well, it's far easier to get them into our Angel Yogurt parlour than it is to get them out! These are just a few comments from our customers: " Went to Angel Berry for the first time. I've just died and gone to heaven!" " I could live in Angel Berry!" " If you've never tried Angel Berry you've never lived!" Angel Berry have brought a new dimension to the Frozen Yogurt market as their ground breaking self service experience puts them in a league of their own. SUMMARY To be granted the 'Master Developer' rights to your chosen country for an unheard of low investment of �30,000 is an opportunity afforded to the very few. The pride and satisfaction of watching the growth of Angel Berry as more and more Frozen Yogurt experiences are opened up throughout your country region, will be worth more than money to you; it will give you status, huge respect and the highest self-esteem; and the bi-product of your growth and success of course, should automatically mean considerable financial rewards. With each Angel Berry parlour expected to bring in profits of �150,000 to �200,000 a year, there should be an income stream to satisfy even the most demanding of business entrepreneurs. When 'Angel Berry' becomes an Internationally recognized brand around the world, your small investment now could mature into a wealth making experience then. It only leaves us to say that when the Angel Berry brand gains International status, that we hope you will not only be reading about its success story in your country, but you will also be a part of it.
