Fast Food Restaurant Franchise Opportunity

Primi By Fresca, 4 Franchisees, Est'd in 2020, Buenos Aires HQ
  • 900+ Page Views
  • 200+ Investor Views
Company overview: Primi by Fresca is a fast-food franchise concept delivering healthy, authentic Italian street food. The brand is built on extensive research of successful franchise models, ensuring a strong and effective operational framework. - Brand and promoters: Promoted by Fresca – Laboratori di Pasta, which invested over two years in developing the Primi model. The concept draws on insights from industry experts and experienced franchise operators, supported by a professional team with deep understanding of franchising and the food sector. Business model highlights: • Operational simplicity – Outlets designed for ease of management, requiring no prior culinary experience. • Standardized menu – Authentic Italian dishes made from 100% natural ingredients, ensuring consistent taste and quality. • Efficient space use – Outlets can operate in as little as 20 sqm, reducing overhead costs. • Quick service – Meals prepared and served in just three minutes, ideal for busy urban consumers. Average footfall: Locations are positioned in high-traffic areas such as malls and city centers, attracting steady daily patronage. The healthy, fast-service model appeals to a broad demographic seeking quick yet nutritious meals. Competitive differentiation: • Health-conscious – Focus on fresh, natural ingredients, unlike typical additive-heavy fast food. • Italian specialty – Unique positioning in pasta-based fast food, distinct from burger- and fry-led competitors. • Simplified operations – “A kitchen without knives”, without raw materials, there is no transformation of raw materials into products; everything comes pre-portioned and prepared to be cooked, regenerated, heated, or served. This approach reduces labor costs and food waste. • Strong brand identity – Clear positioning fosters loyalty and repeat customers. Why invest in Primi? 1. Unique market position – First-mover advantage as a dedicated pasta fast-food franchise. 2. Attractive margins – High profitability designed into the operating model. 3. Comprehensive support – Full training, marketing, and operational guidance for franchisees. 4. Scalable model – Easy to expand and manage multiple outlets with minimal staffing. 5. Market trend – Rising demand for healthy, fast dining options positions Primi for growth. Summary: Primi by Fresca offers a profitable, scalable franchise opportunity built on health, quality, and operational efficiency in the fast-food sector. The business operates with a valid operations license. At Primi by Fresca, we are proud to highlight the exceptional margins we achieve, primarily due to the quality and simplicity of our product offerings. Our food is essentially made from just flour and water, which allows us to maintain a food cost of under 25%, and in certain cases, as low as 20%. Our operational model is designed for efficiency, featuring a very low labor incidence with only three employees required per shift. This streamlined approach not only reduces labor costs but also simplifies management. To operate a Primi location, a minimum space of just 30 square meters is needed, making it accessible for various settings. Importantly, our model eliminates waste; there is no food thrown away. All ingredients are delivered ultra-frozen from our distribution center, boasting a shelf life of over six months. This ensures that we maintain high quality while minimizing spoilage and maximizing profitability. With these factors combined, Primi offers a compelling franchise opportunity with strong financial performance potential. This is why, when the location is right, we can achieve an impressive EBITDA of up to 40%. Our efficient operational model, combined with our low food costs and minimal labor requirements, allows us to maximize profitability. With the right site selection, Primi by Fresca offers a lucrative franchise opportunity that stands out in the fast-food industry.
