There is no fixed costs as costs vary based on multiple factors such as the location, configuration, and size of store.
If the size and property is suitable after assessment by our Estates team then we are open to its use as a PHAT Buns store.

Training is split between technical training at our Head Office and practical training in your own store.
The cost of the initial training is included within the Franchise Licence Fee. The only items not covered are your own travel, accommodation, and food.
