FRESHLY BAKED BUSINESS
What motivates this Auntie Anne’s franchisee? A
untie Anne’s pride themselves on being the biggest (and most delicious!) soft pretzel brand in the world! With over 2,000 stores in more than 30 different countries there is a wealth of
experience and history to help you succeed as a franchisee. In the UK and Ireland there are now over 40 stores and many more in the pipeline. We spoke to their Coventry Franchisee to understand what life’s like for an Auntie Anne’s Franchisee…
Describe a typical working day for you? Each day is very different, I am a very hands-on franchisee and I enjoy all aspects of the day- to-day running of my stores. My day typically starts from 9am, I arrive at the store and the first member of staff will have already arrived and started the morning preparation. I would use this time to complete paperwork. Around 11.30am I like to be in the store ready for lunch trade, without a doubt rolling pretzels is still the most enjoyable aspect of the job! Around 4pm I wind down from this store as they close here at 6pm as its location is within a shopping centre. I then visit the second store where I will check how their day has been and help prepare for their evening trade as this store is open until 8pm.
What’s the most rewarding aspect of the business? There are lots of rewarding aspects to the business but I can honestly say three years on I still enjoy what I do – nothing beats the smell of the first batch freshly baked in the morning! It takes a certain type of person to work within retail, you have to be friendly and understanding but it’s also very rewarding when you have returning customer who gives you great feedback.
