An outlet launch budget of 2 lacs is needed to launch any outlet in the first 3-4 months of its operations.

Once the outlet is open, marketing spends will be done as per requirement, but our experience has taught us that one should allocate at least 5% of the monthly revenue towards marketing.

At the time of signing up the outlet, we will make a projection on the revenue we expect to do. 35% of the projected Revenue in the first month will be considered for the initial stock indent.

Royalty for all models is the same and is fixed at 3% and Adminstrative fee at 2% on net revenue per month
