The restaurant industry is the most-franchised industry, consistently leading in overall job creation, according to Franchisedirect.com. The Food Franchise Industry Report 2014 reported that the bakery café segment is a major player in the food industry.
Between Rounds Bakery Sandwich Café, the unique bakery café and bagel shop with locations throughout Connecticut, offers traditional store and kiosk franchise opportunities to restaurant managers, bakers and others who wish to command their own destiny. In fact, the Between Rounds opportunity is the next likely step for restaurant managers and bakers who have been working in the industry for a number of years because they have the focus and expertise. Plus, the hours working in a fast casual café franchise such as Between Rounds are better.
“Nowadays, consumers are looking for fresh, healthy and nutritious meal options in a quick serve atmosphere, which makes bakery cafés extremely popular and a solid business investment,” explained Jerry Puiia, co-owner of the Between Rounds Bakery Café franchise.
He continued, “Restaurant managers and bakers are already ‘hands on’ in the industry and well-aware of what it takes to successfully operate a bakery café. The next logical step for them is shop ownership. Between Rounds offers brand recognition, proven operations and plenty of training and support which, coupled with the knowledge and experience they already have, is a recipe for success.”
The family-owned Between Rounds Bakery Sandwich Café, has been in business for more than two decades and is the brainchild of brothers Jerry and Joe Puiia, who are Staten Island, NY natives. Between Rounds’ current locations include South Windsor (corporate headquarters), Vernon, Manchester and Tolland. Between Rounds franchise options include a traditional store opportunity and a Kiosk program. Between Rounds’ kiosk store program is a non-traditional convenience store/gas station model that offers customers the ability to purchase Between Rounds specialty coffee, fresh made breakfast and lunch sandwiches, fresh baked bagels and assorted bakery items from a clean, well-designed store (drive-thru window is optional) adjacent to the filling station. The kiosk store has low start-up costs and requires an overall investment of approximately $120K for a standard store with no drive-thru.
