FRANCHISING

Why own a Bar Louie?

HERE'S WHAT INSIDERS ARE SAYING:

"The distilled spirits industry generates around $100 billion in U.S. economic activity annually, according to the Distilled Spirits Council, a national trade association." – Entrepreneur.com

"Do you open a Subway franchise? No way. Where's the fun in that? You want to do something fun. You want to open a bar." -Michael J. Neff, From Behind the Bar: So You Want to Open a Bar

Bar Louie holds a unique placeholder in the Bar/Food/Drink Category:

• 90% of our customers say we are not a sports bar, yet 60% say when they watch the game they go to Bar Louie
• 51% of our guests are FEMALE – women feel very comfortable at Bar Louie
• 23% of our sales are after 10 pm – where do you think all the restaurant employees go after they leave work?
• Not one of our 70+ locations are the same

Do you have what it takes?

We’re looking for owners of concepts across all verticals who share our passion for creating a fun, entertaining experience that offers great food and amazing drinks. We want our franchisees to possess:

• Relevant restaurant or business experience
• A strong work-ethic
• An eye for talent
• A desire to be a part of their community 

And you need to have some cash and equity – per location we require:

• $500,000 in Liquid Assets
• $1,500,000 in Net Worth
• Ability to execute and open quickly

HOW DO WE HELP?

We understand that a great customer experience starts with the franchisee. While we encourage our franchisees to take ownership and creative control, we also offer extensive support along the way, including:

• Full support through the site identification and construction process
• A comprehensive training program for restaurant teams
• Access to leading software and restaurant management tools
• Compelling advertising and local store marketing materials
