Funding your dream business: where there’s a will, there’s a way!

While the Just Pizza & Pasta franchise has perfected a very streamlined model which is much more affordable and cost-effective than many other F&B franchises, you will still need to make a considerable investment, of course.

I can appreciate that this can give people pause for thought, but the simple fact is that if you really want to start your own business, there are plenty of ways to make it happen, and raising the capital you need could be a lot easier than you think.

GOVERNMENT START-UP LOAN – personal loans of up to £25k per director of a new business offered at a very low, fixed interest rate. Teaming up with a business partner, or spouse, may give you access to multiple loans.

REGIONAL FUNDING SCHEMES – many areas of the UK have their own special schemes to help new and growing business, such as the Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund, all of which offer both grants and preferential rate loans backed by the government.

BANK FRANCHISE INITIATIVES – investing in a franchise is very different from starting your own business alone – especially in terms of how it is viewed by a number of leading banks who understand how it works. With a franchise like Just Pizza & Pasta, you’re investing in a proven business model with a strong brand reputation, hugely reducing the risks associated with independent startups. Banks and lenders recognise this, making franchise funding more accessible and favourable than general business loans.

THE BOTTOM LINE?

While there is never any such thing as a 100% guarantee in any business, joining a franchise gives you the best possible chance of making a great return on your investment – especially a franchise like Just Pizza & Pasta.

If you have the skills and ambition – and, above all, you are passionate about starting your own exciting and dynamic restaurant business– you CAN make it happen!

WHAT ARE YOUR OTHER FINANCIAL CONCERNS?

The other big thing I am hearing about, of course, is the increase in employer National Insurance coming in next month. With most Just Pizza & Pasta staff working part-time only at peak periods in the week, the impact on their business model will be minimal. On top of that, the already low overheads and considerable profit margins built into this franchise, means there is still plenty of wriggle room to enjoy an excellent return on your investment.
