Brace yourself! More Soupesoup restaurants coming through franchises

Brace yourself! More Soupesoup restaurants coming through franchises

As customers, we can hardly imagine what the life of a restaurateur is. Personnel management, business development, accounting, customer service, inconvenient schedule on evenings and weekends ... All these reasons have convinced the owner of Soupesoup restaurants to open the door to franchise.

In recent months, Caroline Dumas has indeed sold three restaurants to franchisees. There are still three available at a cost of $ 25,000. The new owners must pay just 3% of sales thereafter. Caroline Dumas wishes to keep only one to her.

One of the buyers is the Simons store at Galeries d'Anjou. If the public response is favorable, it is possible to see other Soupesoup in future Simons. Also, other new owners are satisfied with the performance and notice an increase in sales.

Meanwhile, Caroline Dumas continue to offer sandwiches and soups at popular prices, although most of the ingredients are organic, and therefore usually more expensive. It is the mission of Soupesoup to well feed people.

Note that Soupesoup restaurants are open only during the day. You will bump your nose at the door if you try to go in the evening… Here, a point in favor of the new owners: free evening!
