Franchise Information
Our Model is Simplicity
• Simple Menu
We offer fresh "hot outta the oven" pretzels and a few other products such as pretzel dogs, pretzel cheesesteaks, pepperoni melts, and cinnamon pretzel twists. We make it as easy as possible to run our system, so we keep our product line limited.
• Solid Support
We focus on providing unmatched franchise support through our Franchise Support Managers who work with you to maintain operation efficiency and build sales through store visits and consistent communication.
• Proven Growth
Since our first franchise opened nearly 20 years ago, in-stores sales have continued to grow. In fact, 45% of franchise owners own multiple stores.
Philly Pretzel plans more in-store Walmart locations!
Philly Pretzel Factory plans to open another 50 locations within Walmart stores next year.
The Northeast Philadelphia-based chain already opened 15 such locations within the retailer within the past year.
Each space has a Philly Pretzel "store front" and is 500 square feet.
New locations will be added to Walmart stores in the Philadelphia-South Jersey area, Virginia and Florida.
Overall, Philly Pretzel Factory has about 100 stores, so the Walmart expansion is poised to become a significant portion of business.
