Answers to your biggest questions about the Udderlicious franchise
January is probably not everyone’s favourite month, but there’s always plenty to be happy about down at the local Udderlicious! Regular customers will know there are new flavours and recipes to try out every month, such as the delicious ice cream, and January is no exception. This time, we're excited to feature some udderly-delicious vegan options: Chocolate Banana Bread, Rhubarb & Blueberry Crumble, and Hazelnut Praline!
Udderlicious only launched as a franchise a few months ago but, have been inundated with enquiries from people looking to create their own unique ice cream boutique in their local community.
The Udderlicious franchise profile on this site is a good place to start looking at our information and, plus, you can ask us about anything to do with this opportunity. However, some key questions keep coming up in our conversations, so we’d like to answer a couple of the most frequent ones here for you now:
1) Where’s the best place to open my own Udderlicious?
The Udderlicious franchise is designed to work in any location with decent footfall, and we’re confident it can be a success in any town or city in the UK. However, we’ve identified 10 locations in the capital which we consider to have exceptional potential for a new store:
Carnaby/Soho
Camden
Notting Hill
Primrose Hill
Shoreditch
Marylebone
South Kensington/Knightsbridge
Spitalfields
Belgravia
West End
So, if you live in or around these areas, or already know of a great location near you, we’d especially like to hear from you. But, even if you want to open a store outside London you should still get in touch!
The Udderlicious team just knows the London locations particularly well, however we’re still keen to hear from anyone anywhere in the UK whose local community is just crying out for some extra, sweet delicious joy in their lives!
2) How much does it cost to set-up my new store?
As you may have read on our profile, the franchise fee for partnering with Udderlicious is £20,000 + VAT, plus an amount of working capital (depending on your personal circumstances) to see you through your start-up phase. You also need to consider the cost of leasing and outfitting your store. The exact costs will obviously vary, depending on your location and local costs, but, based on our existing stores, we estimate this to be around £182,000 + VAT.
I hope that helps!
