Is it Just Pizza & Pasta?

Yes... almost!

Alongside our authentic pizzas and pasta, we also serve a carefully selected range of fresh salads, soft drinks and alcoholic beverages, all introduced following customer demand.

We believe that keeping our menu focused allows us to concentrate on delivering exceptional quality, consistency and service with every dish.

Everything we do is driven by one simple objective to ensure every customer leaves having enjoyed an outstanding dining experience and wanting to return again and again.

What's My Investment? 

The franchise fee for a Just Pizza & Pasta franchise is £20,000 plus VAT.

Restaurant fit-out costs vary depending on the size and condition of your chosen premises, but franchisees should be prepared to invest approximately £230,000, with significant funding available through major lending institutions, subject to status.

We'll also provide a detailed breakdown of startup costs, equipment requirements and recommended working capital based on our existing operations, helping you fully understand the investment required before proceeding.

The initial Franchise Agreement is granted for five years and may be renewed, subject to meeting the renewal criteria and mutual agreement.

Expand Beyond the Restaurant 

Looking to grow your business beyond a traditional restaurant?

Just Pizza & Pasta franchisees also have the opportunity to introduce fully automated pizza vending machines, creating an additional income stream that can generate sales around the clock.

Installed in carefully selected high-footfall locations such as retail parks, business parks, transport hubs, universities, hospitals and leisure venues, these innovative machines freshly prepare and serve hot pizzas within minutes, providing customers with quality food whenever they want it. 

Pizza Vending Machine Highlights

• Additional investment from approximately £40,000
• Potential to sell 30–40 pizzas per day in the right location
• Average selling price of £10–£11 per pizza
• Top-performing machines have reportedly sold 100+ pizzas per day
• Operates 24 hours a day with minimal staffing requirements
• Can also be positioned at festivals and major events to maximise seasonal trading opportunities

Whether you choose to operate a successful restaurant, add one or more vending machines, or combine both, Just Pizza & Pasta offers multiple opportunities to grow your business and increase your earning potential.

Our Training & Support 

Your journey begins with a comprehensive 10-day theory programme, covering every aspect of operating and managing your new restaurant.

You (and your appointed manager, where applicable) will then spend 20 days working within one of our established restaurants, gaining valuable hands-on experience under the guidance of our experienced team.

Before launch, our support team will spend 4 weeks with you in your new restaurant, helping recruit and train staff, assisting with setup and supporting a successful opening.

Our support continues long after launch. As your business grows, you'll continue to receive operational guidance, business development advice and ongoing support to help you maximise your restaurant's potential.

Who Are We Looking For?

Previous restaurant experience isn't essential.

Our comprehensive training programme has been designed to teach you everything you need to confidently operate your own Just Pizza & Pasta restaurant.

We're looking for motivated individuals who:

• Have management or leadership experience.
• Enjoy working with people and delivering excellent customer service.
• Are organised and commercially minded.
• Want to build a successful business using proven systems.
• Have the ambition to grow within their exclusive territory.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.

Your Route to Success

While Just Pizza & Pasta does not provide finance directly, funding may be available through major high street banks and other commercial lenders, subject to status.

Franchising is widely recognised as one of the safest and most structured ways to start a business, and many lenders view established franchise systems as a lower-risk investment than independent start-ups. You may also be eligible for Government-backed Start Up Loans or other finance options.

Based on the performance of our existing operations, we're confident franchisees have the opportunity to generate strong returns, with an illustrative Year 1 annual profit projection of £96,000*.
