The Dirty Vegans

Welcome to The Dirty Vegans franchise opportunity

“You don’t have to be vegan, just a little bit dirty”

Why Invest in a The Dirty Vegans franchise?

When you buy a franchise, you are not buying a business where you stand alone and face the many trials that come with business ownership. 

In joining The Dirty Vegans family, you are buying into a tried and tested model, with a strong established presence. The franchise delivers a proven brand, a fabulous and innovative menu along with full support to get franchisees off to a flying Dirty Vegans start. One of the major reasons individuals opt to buy a franchise rather than start their own business is because franchises have a better track record of success. 

The Natwest figures back this up, indicating that over 90% of franchisees say that they are making a profit. In addition, less than 1% of franchises fail each year. In a sobering contrast, figures suggest that about 60% of non-franchise SME start-ups fail within five years.
