| Experience | You don't need to have specific experience in the candy and confections business to become a franchise owner with Chocolate Works. We look for people who have a passion for our products, and who have some retail experience and/or customer service skills. We also prefer franchise owners who will be directly involved in the operations and growth of their Chocolate Works franchises. In turn, we'll provide the support franchisees need to run their Chocolate Works business. We do, of course, also expect that franchisees have the right amount of capital to invest in the business. | General business experience |
