About the Opportunity
When you partner with Walker’s Doughnuts as a Franchise Partner, you become part of our Walker’s family, a family that has seen a successful operation grow from humble beginnings to a business that is known and loved by its customers Australia-wide. We have been delighting customers since 2006 and continue to grow as Australia's fastest-growing Doughnut franchise system. Our roots are deeply based in the nostalgic and eternal food of the glorious days of the Golden Age of Americana. From beautiful traditional doughnuts, award-winning Coffee to heritage brand Sodas and classic Hot Dog flavours, you will become a part of something truly special; something that is missing in this age of fast fads and even faster food.
THE 3 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER A WALKER’S DOUGHNUTS FRANCHISE
1. Product
Sink your teeth into a fresh, tender, moist Walker’s Doughnuts doughnut and you know you are eating something special. Not the bland, tasteless rubbish that passes for doughnuts these days. Our hot jam doughnuts will remind you of the roadside vendors that we all remember from the 60s and 70s. Our hot dogs are plump, juicy frankfurters and speciality sausages made with exceptional quality and high meat content rather than the bland tasteless and chemically-laden ‘hot dog imposters’ that try to pass themselves off as the real thing. Our sausages are manufactured by a family-owned business as are our (shapely) buns. You know those old American films with the happy teenagers eating a fresh sweet glazed Doughnut, drinking their Drugstore Milkshake Malts and eating their Diner 10” Hot Dog with all the trimmings, right? THAT’S what our food tastes like!
2. People
Your enthusiasm and our enthusiasm is the rocket fuel that will take us to the stars. We haven’t got a crystal ball, but the time-honoured tradition holds true in life as in business; be prepared to work hard and smart, listen and learn and success may just come a knockin ‘. At Walker’s, from the CEO and down to every single staff member, we will do our best to support you in your journey as a Walker’s Doughnuts Owner. We will be by your side for every question and every problem you encounter. Don’t be fooled; there will be plenty of problems and challenges to meet, but, hey, that’s life and that’s business.
3. Position
If the site does not meet our approval criteria based on our proprietary templates, we aren’t interested. Every Walker’s site is screened for foot traffic, demographics and profitability. We won’t offer you a site just for the sake of it.
Marketing support
Walker's Doughnuts believes the best marketing tool is customer appreciation of our products and the service they experience. Serving great tasting doughnuts and a great experience is something customers will want to come back to.
Walker's Doughnuts Franchise Partners are expected to carry out local area marketing.
