F.A.Q.
License Application
|
Our mission to our Licensees
is to help place them in a profitable and rewarding business
The total cost to build an Octane Cafe ranges between $96,000 and $286,000
including a $20,000 License fee and a $6,000 Training and Development fee,
depending on location and variety of other variables.

Once
you purchase a License, you have the rights to the
Octane Cafe logo, our concept, menu and all of our operational systems.
The First Step is one of our Development Managers travels
to your location with a start up packet that will introduce you to our
approved vendors and suppliers and provide you information critical to
running your shop. The start up packet includes:
- A complete list
of our approved suppliers including:
product vendors, menu board,
signage, equipment and
furnishings
- Detailed
Information about our design-build specifications,
including architectural, engineering
and planning.
- What you must
do legally and physically to set up your
business
- Business plans
to use for financing and projections
- Cafe
designs and layouts as examples
- Employee forms
and checklists
- Detailed
Operations Manuals
The Second Step and the other main purpose of this visit
is to assist in
location selection. We will meet with a national
commercial realtor chain
that we use around the country and identify
suggested locations. Once a
location is identified, we will assist with
your letter of intent and lease
negotiations.
When the location is secured,
a representative from our
corporate team will conduct a site
evaluation trip at which time they will
assist in
contacting the local building
department and conduct interviews
with all necessary subcontractors.
Once
your building permit is released, you will have a construction foreman
on-site thru completion to insure your build-out is done on time and
within
budget.
The Final Step is when you are ready for the "Grand
Opening".
One of our
Training Managers will travel to your location for
on-site training.
What you don’t get are monthly royalty payments that can average from
5-15% of your gross revenues, advertising pool royalties from 2-10% of
your
gross revenues, or inflated inventory costs.
Thank you for your
interest in our company, and if you have any questions or comments
please feel welcome to contact us anytime.
