Zoup! - Soup Restaurant Franchise

 

 

The Zoup! Franchise 

We've taken soup to the next level by offering customers the one-of-a-kind soup creations they love, in a format that is consistent with today's lifestyles and dining trends.

With the same "everything matters" philosophy that ensures quality, satisfaction and convenience for our customers, Zoup! has created the infrastructure, systems and support programs that give franchisees the tools they need to build their own successful businesses.

You'll Benefit From Our Unique, Proven Concept

  • The right concept at the right time. Zoup! is a direct response to growing customer demand for fresh and healthy meals served in a casual, comfortable setting.
  • A unique product category that provides access to real estate that might otherwise be unavailable - because of existing restaurants. (Example: A franchisee who chooses to open a sub shop might have difficulty finding a good, high-traffic location that doesn't already have one.)
  • The opportunity to offer a complete menu, including proprietary, high-quality soups,salads, sandwiches, smoothies, desserts and beverages.
  • Comprehensive computer-based and classroom-style training, as well as hands-on, in-store training.

You Get the Operational Support You Need, Every Step of the Way

Through our effective Z!Track pre-opening program; computer-based instruction; and hands-on, intensive training courses, franchisees receive all the support needed for a smooth store opening. Once open, our state-of-the art, online management program - Z!Net - provides the powerful accounting, management and operating resources you'll need to run a successful business.

Franchisees also receive support in these areas:

  • Market and site selection, and lease negotiation
  • Store design and construction
  • Staff hiring and training
  • Proprietary products and recipes
  • Supplier relationships and buying power
  • Marketing and promotion
  • Point-of-sale, intranet, web and accounting technology
  • Ongoing operational support

Turn-Key Marketing Programs Help You Reach Out to Customers

We help you attract and retain customers with professionally prepared marketing materials and powerful brand-building programs.

  • Daily Emails: The Zoup! daily email program gives you the opportunity to "reach out" to your store's individual customers by offering them an ever-changing daily menu and special promotions and giveaways - available only to subscribers.
  • Point-of-Purchase Materials: Zoup! provides you with an array of in-store marketing materials, including everything from photographic product banners, nutritional signage and printed tray liners to flyers, newsletters and comment cards.
  • Public Relations: As a Zoup! franchisee, you'll get the tools and support you need to generate media coverage of your business. From "how to build a media list" to "what interests reporters and editors" we'll provide exactly what you need to get the credible, third-party endorsements that no amount of money can buy.
  • Advertising: Franchisees have access to our library of print ad and coupon layouts for newspapers, magazines and coupon publications.
  • Punch Cards: We provide everything you need to implement a punch card program that rewards your most loyal customers. Those who visit your store within a specified timeperiod will have the opportunity to earn a punch toward a store gift certificate.

Franchisee Agreements Are Built on a Variety of Business Models

We're interested in teaming up with exceptional peoplewho have a high degree of personal integrity, an entrepreneurial spirit and a strong desire to succeed in running their own business. Franchisees also must be detail-oriented and have a passion for the Zoup! philosophy and products. In addition to individual franchisees, we're looking for seasoned business people (or entities) with the skills and financial backing needed to open multiple locations and develop key geographic territories. Here are a few examples of the types of business models we could offer:

  • Single-Unit Franchise Agreement in which a franchisee purchases the right to develop one store in a limited, exclusive area, without any obligation to develop additional units.
  • Multi-Unit Franchise Agreement in which a Franchisor agrees to "develop a market" and receives the right to develop multiple units in a specified, exclusive area within a specified timeframe.
  • Master Developer Agreement in which a franchisee is assigned the right to be the "sub-Franchisor" for a specified market.
