Now that you’ve decided you are ready to open your own poké franchise location, how exactly do you do it? At  Pokémoto, we’re here to help you launch your own poké restaurant. So we put together a complete guide. Keep reading to learn some things you need to know to get started!

Do Some Market Research 

When you’re considering investing in a Pokémoto franchise, we can answer your questions about the market and your investment.  But it doesn’t hurt to get a head start and learn everything you can about the location you’re considering. Location is key. Find some high-traffic areas that have easy access to get started. Read about market and investment opportunities in your area to make sure the local market can support a Pokémoto location.

Get a Handle on Finances 

At Pokémoto, we provide estimates of the initial investment it will require to get started with your poké restaurant franchise. Take a look at our franchise page to learn more about what it takes to get started, then reach out to us to get your questions answered. We offer a lower-than-average cost of entry over most franchises, which makes it easier to be approved for financing. 

Consider the Training and Support You’ll Receive

Depending on the franchise you choose, the level of training and support will vary. One of the benefits of investing in a franchise over starting up a brand-new restaurant is the support you receive from the franchisor. This along with working with an established brand that has a  business model in place and marketing materials already created helps give you a head start in your business. Pokémoto offers training and support to get your restaurant set up and opened, ongoing support during your store’s opening and beyond, and any additional assistance you may need. We want your poké restaurant to be a local hit!

Reach Out to the Franchisor 

If you’re interested in learning more or getting started, begin by contacting us. Reach out to learn more about our poké restaurants and franchise opportunities. A member of our team will be in touch to provide the disclosure documents and answer your questions.

Do Your Due Diligence 

The due diligence period is an opportunity for you and the franchisor to get to know each other. Ask questions. And a lot of them. Make sure you have a thorough and clear understanding of what you are getting into. Becoming a franchise owner is a big step and should be well thought out. 

Sign the Agreement 

If everything looks good after you’ve learned about the initial investment, secured financing, done your due diligence, and had all of your questions answered—and you still want to jump in with both feet—go ahead and sign the agreement. Then get ready for the journey of a lifetime!
