Geek Retreat offers you the opportunity to buy into an established store with a unique business model which has huge growth potential.
About The Franchise:
Geek Retreat is an Entertainment Retailer specialising in geek-culture - everything from Batman to boardgames; Marvel to Magic: the Gathering. In essence, we’re a comic bookstore and local gaming cafe - we sell merchandise like figures, posters, clothing and, of course, comics; and we serve food and drink like burgers, milkshakes and candy, all in a welcoming and inviting environment with free to play board games, video games and graphic novels to encourage our customers to become regulars. But we’ve innovated beyond this to become a recognised host of daily events, from comic book signings to trading card games tournaments, which we hold in our stores each and every day.
Whilst other branded stores sell similar merchandise to Geek Retreat, and a handful of independent stores offer sit-and-stay food & drink and events, no brand currently occupies the combined space of retail, hospitality, and events that Geek Retreat does.
Hardcore geeks will form the basis of our repeat custom and tend to make use of the sit-in-and-stay environment of the stores, including the free to play board games, video games and graphic novel library, meaning a higher than average per-visit stay time and spend.
All products will be paid for with either cash or card at the point of sale, keeping our cashflow healthy.
