A food cart business offers an ideal franchising opportunity. As a small, self-contained cooking unit, it already has a simple menu and streamlined systems, qualities essential to any successful food franchise. But a food cart franchise presents a challenge to a potential franchiser, because the business seems easy enough that potential franchisees may believe they can get started on their own. To succeed as a food cart franchiser you need to offer your franchisees a unique value and a recognizable name as well as a profitable menu, and you need to convince potential franchisees that you can provide them with indispensable resources. |

Step 1 Develop a menu, theme and logo for your food cart business. Choose a type of food item that you can heat and serve quickly, with a limited amount of space. Test recipes and create a quality product, with unique features that you can market to both franchisees and customers. Step 2 Design a food cart uniquely suited for heating and serving your particular menu. Patent the design and find a manufacturer to produce your carts. Your food cart design should be different enough from standard food cart designs for franchisees to be willing to pay extra for the right to use it, and it should be simple enough that a manufacturer can fabricate it without trouble. Step 3 Build a prototype of the food cart you will franchise and the menu you will offer, and vend at a variety of locations until you get a clear sense of the type of venue where your concept will thrive. Build a list of suitable locations to offer to potential franchisees. |
