Why Open a Hungry Howie's in 2017

Tuesday, March 21, 2017

One of your goals for 2017 may be to open your own business. If you’re considering making the leap into entrepreneurship, Hungry Howie’s could be the right fit.

Choosing a franchise is a great way to start your own business without needing to build a brand. In franchising, the franchisor provides its trademarked brand and system of operations to its franchisees. With Hungry Howie’s, the brand is already established and has been for decades.

In today’s market, franchises have an edge. In 2015, franchises outperformed independent operators in total revenue and average same stores sales. The New Year is a great time to consider opening a Hungry Howie’s for many reasons.

At the end of 2016, Hungry Howie’s reported continued same-store sales growth for 27 consecutive quarters.* In 2015, more than $342 million in sales was reported. The average annual gross sales of more than 300 Hungry Howie’s Pizza units between 2014 and 2015 was $638,283.13**.

A Commitment to Franchisees

Along with growing sales, Hungry Howie’s has re-branded and rebuilt its internal and consumer-facing company websites.

The company has invested in providing franchisees with technology to better assist in operating their businesses, through an internal digital system. Howie’s Online Management Exchange can pull data from all locations so the company and franchisees can monitor their progress. Online sales, average ticket amount, labor reports, and so much more can be viewed through your web browser or mobile app. Furthermore, the online ordering system and improved point-of-sale system has also led to increases in ticket sales.

Hungry Howie’s believes in its franchisees and prepares them for success. An experienced team will guide you through selecting a site, lease negotiations, and construction if needed. Before your store opens, operational guidance and training are provided. Marketing assistance is supplied from beginning to end, and a distribution network helps you with purchasing and logistics for operating your Hungry Howie’s.

Hungry Howie’s has been named a Top 50 Franchise and ranks in the Top 100 on Entrepreneur’s annual Franchise 500® list.
