Is it Just Pizza & Pasta?

Behind Just Pizza & Pasta is a single objective: to ensure that every customer thoroughly enjoys each and every visit. Put simply, no-one else does that as well as we do!

Who Are We Looking For?

No experience of working in, or running, a restaurant is required; it’s a definite advantage but our training and support systems are designed to coach you in everything you need to know. We’ve spent a great deal of time and effort on meticulously developing how our restaurants work, and creating robust systems on how to replicate that in any setting.

You should have some management experience, as well as excellent communication, organisation, and problem-solving skills. A basic understanding of accounts and attention to detail would be good too.

Come and share in our success story and take the wonderful brand we have built into towns and cities right across the UK.

Our Training & Support

Your journey will start with a 10-day theory programme covering all aspects of running and managing your new business based on our experience and expertise.

You (and your appointed manager, if applicable) will also be invited to spend 20 days working in one of our established restaurants. Our support staff will work with you in your new restaurant for 4 weeks to help you recruit and train staff, and assist you in a successful grand opening. You’ll have everything you need to confidently launch your business and grow it for many years to come.

Our involvement does not end when you are ready to open your own restaurant; your success is our success, so it is in our best interests to help you as much as we possibly can.

What’s my investment?

The franchise fee for a Just Pizza & Pasta franchise is ONLY £20,000 plus VAT.

Restaurant fitout costs vary according to location and unit size/condition, but franchisees should be prepared to invest a total of circa £230,000 of which significant bank funding is available.

We have also prepared a detailed breakdown of the additional set-up costs and working capital you will need while you build up your presence in the local area. This is based on our current outlets which we are more than happy to discuss further with you, obviously these costs will vary from location to location.

The initial franchise agreement lasts for five years, and is renewable, subject to certain criteria being met by the franchisee, and in agreement with the franchisor.

Your route to success

While the Just Pizza & Pasta franchise does not provide financing directly, there are a number of options to help you with your investment. It may be possible to obtain funding from most major high street banks, subject to status. Franchising is one of the safest and most secure ways of starting your own business, so many lenders rightfully see it as a much lower risk than a completely new start-up. You may also benefit from a Government Start-up loan.

Exactly how much you can expect to earn from your franchise can vary a great deal, but based on our current operations, we are more than confident that you can enjoy rapid and potentially significant returns on your investment with a Year 1 annual projection of £96k*

We will be more than happy to share more detailed financial information with you as you move through our enquiry process, and will help you to assess the potential of your own local area.
