Fosters Freeze Franchise Cost and Requirements for 2022

Hamburgers and ice cream are staples of the American diet. Americans eat about 50 billion hamburgs and 23 pounds of ice cream and other frozen desserts annually. Have you ever wanted to open a restaurant that does both? If so, then the Fosters Freeze franchise could be for you. The brand was founded by George Foster in 1946 in Inglewood, Calif. It was originally  known as Foster’s “Old Fashion” Freeze. It became a huge hit due to the brand's soft serve ice cream that is served in cones. This "California Legend" has been making made-to-order burgers and other American favorites before McDonald's and Burger King came into existence. This is an attractive franchise opportunity because you will receive great support and training; it can be passed down to your family as a legacy brand; and you can choose one of the franchise's three layout. These include a stand alone location, confections restaurant, and co-located brand. The stand alone location serves the full menu; the confections restaurant only serves ice cream; and co-located locations can be opened in high traffic areas like a military base, airport, or gas station.
The amount of your investment will depend on the layout of your location. The brand also incentivizes veterans to invest with them by discounting the initial franchise fee by 10%. Franchise owners will receive classroom and on-the-job instruction at the brand's training center Salinas, Calif. The brand also set up a marketing fund to help you budget for things like regional advertising, social media, and SEO. You can also expect ongoing support during the duration of your time with the brand.
