GFG already has master franchise owners all over the world, and we are ready to add to our growing business! “Freshness with a twist” is a motto that appeals to people of all cultures and languages, which is why people around the world already know about our delicious brand.

Site Selection

As you prepare to open a Pretzelmaker store in your territory, even if you have opened fifty stores before, it is important to find the right location. Site selection is the most important part of opening a franchise because your location needs to be convenient to draw traffic. The good news is that Pretzelmaker has real estate teams that can help you evaluate potential locations.

We will provide you with criteria, design ideas, and the required site layout, which helps you find good locations. These pointers are useful as you look at prospective locations, making the process that much easier.

Space Requirements

One of the many wonderful things about Pretzelmaker is that you can make a store fit in nearly any space. We provide the criteria, and then you find the ways to fit a store into your territory. Whether you choose a traditional location in a mall or shopping center or go non-traditional by locating in a place like a travel hub, Pretzelmaker can make a splash in your community.

The minimum requirements for a Pretzelmaker international franchise are:

    • Traditional Store: 61–244 square meters (200–850 square feet)
    • Non-traditional Store: 122–244 square meters (400–800 square feet)
