| Experience | You don't necessarily need to have specific business ownership experience or a background in foodservice or nutrition to become a franchise owner with Bowl of Heaven. We look for people who are passionate, customer-service oriented and who have a desire to make a difference in their local communities. We prefer franchise owners who will be directly involved in the operations and growth of their Bowl of Heaven franchises, unless they have an operating partner with a minimum 5% equity in the business. In turn, we'll provide the support franchisees need to run their Bowl of Heaven franchise. We do, of course, also expect that franchisees have the right amount of capital to invest in the business. | |
