Support
After the grand opening of the franchised restaurant, we will visit its business and operation from time to time. Then, based on the inspections results, we will make proper suggestions and require corrections when necessary to enhance the franchisee's profitability.
We will supply the Little Sheep proprietary soup condiments, designate some of the meat, food and beverage, constructive materials and equipment suppliers, and also assist franchisees with the purchase of dishware, uniforms, and some of the key materials as part of our franchising support.
Marketing
By establishing the System Marketing Fund (1% of total sales of each store, including the corporate affiliates and franchisees), we will consolidate all marketing resources for the most optimized result. It will continue to enhance the brand image through advertisement, promotion, PR event and brand image exposure in order to boost the restaurant's recognition and credibility. Moreover, we will also facilitate various marketing activities to support franchisee's own marketing programs.
