| Experience | Although it will not be necessary for you to have prior restaurant ownership experience, you will need to have general foodservice experience and the leadership skills necessary to learn the Bikinis system and develop a strong operations team within your franchised bar/restaurant. We also expect you or an operating partner will be fully dedicated to running the business. We also look for solid skills in customer service, relationship-building, operational procedures, organizational, and business management skills. But no matter what your skills or background are, we will provide the tools and training you need to run your own Bikinis Sports Bar & Grill location.
