Franchise FAQ

Investment and fees

The questions people ask us most, answered by the family.

How much is the Halowow franchise fee?

The fee depends on the format: kiosk or full store. It covers your right to operate under the Halowow name, your initial training and access to our house recipes and systems. We give exact figures after we review your application.

What is the total investment?

It depends on the size and location of your kiosk or store. The total covers the franchise fee, construction, equipment, initial inventory and working capital. We send a detailed estimate once we review your application.

Do you offer kiosks or only full stores?

Both. Kiosks fit malls, transport terminals and schools. Full stores fit standalone locations and bigger community spaces.

What return on investment can I expect?

It depends on location and management. Many franchisees report getting their investment back in 18 to 24 months under favorable conditions. This is not a guarantee of earnings.

Franchise FAQ

Training and operations

The questions people ask us most, answered by the family.

What training will I receive?

Hands-on training in our recipes and preparation standards, store operations, customer service and inventory, based on the systems we built at our Taytay flagship. We train your staff too.

Do you provide store design and equipment?

Yes. We provide a standard store design and equipment package, so every branch looks and runs the same way.

How do you keep quality consistent?

We supply all proprietary ingredients. Our signature cream is a custard cream the family makes by hand and sends fresh to every branch. Strict preparation standards, regular audits and refresher training keep every branch at the same level.

How are supplies delivered?

Halowow sources and supplies all key ingredients directly and handles the logistics, so your branch has what it needs.

Do I need to run the store myself?

We encourage owners to stay hands-on, especially in the first year. We also train your managers and crew to handle daily operations.

What marketing support do I get?

Can I own more than one Halowow?
