How much money can I make owning a C-Lovers Franchise?

Unfortunately, there is no straightforward answer. There are a lot of variables in operating a business. Competition, economy, labor market, traffic patterns and possibly the biggest influencing factor is the operator himself/herself.

Our C-Lovers Franchise Team can help you realize you dreams of being a small business owner if you are wiling to put in the hard work. We suggest you start the hard work before you open your business by doing your due diligence.

Look at all the expenses carefully and validate each one where possible. If you’re going to invest all of your time, energy and money, it’s important that the return provides you with sufficient income to support your family and current lifestyle.

We are confident in the success of our restaurants and we want you to feel great about your investment.

You should feel supported by the C-Lovers Franchise Team every step of the way. Let us break down the cost to acquire a C-Lovers Franchise below.

The initial investment to acquire a license to operate as a C-Lovers franchise is $40,000 and is intended to cover initial training, support, site selection, development and legal costs associated with the start-up of the restaurant. Buying a franchise in Canada will vary from location to location.
