A Fresh Opportunity Saladworks offers customers a quick, healthy meal made from the freshest, top-quality ingredients that satisfies even the heartiest appetite. Its what keeps our customers coming back again and again. Not only is Saladworks showing amazing growth but also the majority of our franchisees go on to open additional locations.
Box Lunch is a no-frills fast service Sandwich Shop. We don't cook!! We feature Rolled PITA bread sandwiches (the Rollwich?) and use only the best quality ingredients. The perception of the general public is that we are a healthy alternative to Fried food. Our ingredients appeal to a broad demographic, and are neither healthfood nor ethnically oriented. Our speed results from our basic operating system. We can easily feed 250 people per hour with a small crew and in a small space. We are perfectly suited to take-out, and to drive-up service. Our average per-customer is about $7.00, food costs of about %30, and our competition is anyone else in that price range. Start-up costs for Box Lunch are reasonable (usually under $120,000) and our fees are low. Some freedom of menu offerings is possible, and "home-cooked" sides and desserts are encouraged, but optional. We do NOT allow fried food or alcohol to be sold from our stores; it's just bad for our image.
