Opportunities

With many requests over the years on franchising our business, we feel it's time to share the secrets of our stores. We will continue to maintain the quality that has made Custard's Last Stand that special place for all occasions. From its inception, Custard's Last Stand has built a structured system that will enable each franchisee to maximize their store potential. Each location will gain territorial rights to an area. By establishing your area along with Custard's Last Stand products you will have the ability to flourish.

Our goal is not to just sell franchises. We want successful franchises. We want you to compare the Custard's Last Stand franchise system to other opportunities you may have. It is our hope that you see what we are offering is not just to sell you something but that we are thinking much greater. We want to build a franchise system that works for both of us. Our structure is built to help you start your franchise and be able to stay with it. Our royalty fees are built with you in mind. We know the first couple of years are the toughest for any business, so we start our fees low to help in this period.

Our private labeled frozen custard mix is special. It has taken many years of experience to get Custard's Last Stand where it is today. Our frozen custard has been voted the best ice cream many times and continues to receive that acknowledgement from our loyal base of customers. When you make the best frozen custard and you continue to use the finest ingredients at a reasonable price, you have the framework to success.

We want franchisees that are highly motivated. People who are driven to succeed. Nothing was easy for us and we never expected it to be. Owning a Custard's Last Stand franchise takes an attitude of always wanting to put your best foot forward.

Our stores vary in size and configuration but all share a couple of things in common. All Custard's Last Stand stores feature a clean, brightly lit store with comfortable seating and 50's music playing. We strive to create a family atmosphere in which everyone gathers to have a great deal of fun. Old, young, it doesn't matter as long as we provide a fun, family atmosphere.

Owning a Custard's Last Stand franchise requires you to help support your community. We feel that a great deal of our success has come from supporting school functions along with family activities such as little league baseball and soccer teams. Supporting the people who support you builds a strong relationship. Any franchised business is only as good as the franchisee makes it.

How do you create a sound relationship with a franchisee? We feel that by making your Custard's Last Stand franchise investment a friendly transaction, it can go along way in making us both successful. You will not find us marking equipment up or establishing fees and royalties that are so high that it will prevent you from succeeding. We have established what we need from each franchisee to make it work for us and believe that we do not need to make money on every part of this business. We will keep negotiating for lower prices on all of our equipment and inventory items to work in getting the best deals for YOU! Compare that with other franchises.
