About French Fry Heaven

We realize that most brands or genre's (Yogurt, Pretzels, etc.) are over-saturated and don't allow for intelligent franchise territory selection. However, French Fry Heaven is not only a dynamic young brand, but also the leader in a totally new franchise industry. This allows any franchisee who commits to opening four locations or more, to work with our franchise team to establish a territory of protected space to grow into. Why do all the hard work to build a great reputation and allow someone else to take advantage in your area, when you can establish your territory and dominate with the best franchise operations.
There are 2 models to choose from:French Fry Heaven Cool is a funkier design concept for youthful edgy locations. The colors are vibrant, characters splash in every direction and the energy is decidedly youthful and energetic. French Fry Heaven Fresh has a classic contemporary look and feel. This is best for a majority of locations as it provides a comfortable atmosphere for customers and moves the focus to the food. At both styles of locations, everything on the menu is made fresh. This means more work, but also an expanded menu and revenue opportunity in your franchise. People want fresh from a Fast Casual, so your design choice is secondary to operations. We will work with you to ensure that your franchise location speaks to your Happy Souls (customers). The look of the two stores is interchangeable depending on location. We are looking for what is the best franchise location for you.
