Based out of Dublin, Ohio, Benny's brings authentic cheesesteaks. They try to stay true to the history using lean thin sliced steak, fresh grilled onions and American Cheese. They cook it to order and serve it on Italian bread from Amoroso's Baking Company. The bread is what makes our cheesesteaks famous! You simply cannot make an authentic cheesesteak sandwich without an authentic Philly roll, according to Philadelphians. The roll must be long and thin, not fluffy or soft or too hard. You can add green peppers, mushrooms, sweet peppers, hot peppers or even olives. They'll make it any way you like it. They're sure that once you've tried one, you'll be back for more!
Franchising Tips and Facts
Benny's Cheesesteak franchises offer the franchisee a license or right to sell its goods or services and/or use its business techniques. The franchisees usually pay an initial fee to acquire this right, and thereafter pay a percentage of their gross sales to the franchisor throughout the term of their franchise contract. In return for these payments, Benny's Cheesesteak franchisees gain priveleges, including the right to sell a proven and recognized product or service, to use the franchisor's business practices, and to receive initial training and ongoing support.
In addition to the initial investment required for a Benny's Cheesesteak Franchise, you will also need money to sustain yourself, and the business, until it becomes cash positive. Remember, too, that projections may not be accurate. Market conditions can change and if it takes longer than originally anticipated for the new business to reach breakeven, you'd should have some emergency funds set aside, or it could mean the demise of an inherently sound business.
Investigate earnings claims. If a franchisor makes earnings claims, they are required to have in writing the facts upon which those estimates are based. A seller must tell you the number and percentage of owners that have actually met the claimed profit margins. Beware of broad and unsubstantiated claims.
When considering a Benny's Cheesesteak franchise, try to understand why they are offering you the business in the first place. Very often, franchising is an extremely quick low-risk method of expanding a successful business across the world. As a franchisee, you take on the majority of financial risk. In return the franchisor is offering a successful business formula that has been proven to work. But before you go ahead, ask yourself whether the support, training, stock, experience and brand name justifies the investment asked.
Although the success rate for franchise-owned business is generally better than the success rate for many independent businesses, there is no franchise formula to guarantee victory. The same may also be said of the profits generated. Often the margins you make are a reflection of your ability to properly run your franchise, however you may be able to get a document from the franchisor that illustrates the typical franchise earnings. If the franchisor does not provide such a document, you should contact a number of franchisees in the market you are interested in and seek their advice on the business' profitability.
