FruitFlowers HAS TAKEN OVER Incredibly Edible Delites IS NO LONGER FRANCHISING
Susan Ellman and Ellen Davis began Incredibly Edible Delites Inc. in 1984 out of their own kitchens. What started out as a party idea'a 'floral' bouquet made of fresh-cut fruit'turned into an alternative to sending flowers. Within a year, the partners had moved Incredibly Edible Delites out of their homes; the first franchise location opened in 1993 in Westville, New Jersey.
The floral bouquets make unique centerpieces or gifts, suitable for hospital gifts, birthdays, anniversaries or any gift occasion. All fruits are preservative-free and ready to eat.
The Champion Cheesesteaks franchise has been designed to deliver maximized results, profitability and operating efficiencies through a highly refined and structured food truck franchise. The Champion Cheesesteak franchise is a derivation of what was the Philly Connection Franchise system. It's founder, Mr. Roy Brostrand developed the Philly Connection in the 1980's and has long since sold off his share of ownership in the 280 store chain. The Champion model is his newest creation which takes the winning formula of The Philly Connection and combines it with the hottest segment in food service growth - the Food Truck business. The concept is simple, having manufactured a streamlined food truck operation that manages to fit an entire operating kitchen into a mobile food truck business allows food truck franchisees to operate without complexity. Through technology, skilled design and a keen understanding for the food truck business, Mr. Brostrand and his team of engineers were able to build and develop a food truck that has no comparison on the market. The Champion Cheesesteak franchise also was developed with a focus on marketing, business development and understanding how to find ideal locations for the food truck operation and how to get the customer in tune with where the food truck would be at any particular time. The Champion branding is meant to be bold, game-changing and to the point. The food quality is top-notch and the concept all together has no peers in the food service industry. If you see the massive potential in the explosive food truck franchise industry and have the energy, intensity and drive to build your own business as part of the Champion franchise network,contact us.
