The Concept
Piri piri chicken restaurants, franchised with bank finance and a London training centre
Pepe’s Piri Piri is a piri piri chicken restaurant brand that describes itself as one of the fastest-growing piri piri franchises in the UK. It franchises full restaurants and aims to build what it calls win-win relationships with its franchisees.
No catering background is required. New franchisees train first on Pepe’s online Training Portal, which has three levels and 29 courses covering every aspect of running a store, then at its dedicated training centre at head office in London. An experienced Pepe’s representative works on site for the first week after opening.
A restaurant franchise with bank finance
The investment varies with location, build-out costs and restaurant size, with a published minimum of £300,000. Pepe’s has arranged franchise finance with Lloyds, NatWest and HSBC, and negotiated asset finance on store equipment to reduce set-up costs.
Franchisees can find their own premises, subject to Pepe’s approval, and the brand also works with a national property finding company to help locate sites.
