SUMSUM was founded 8 years ago and opened its first store in Amsterdam on the lively Heiligeweg street. SUMSUM stores offer unique premium Middle Eastern Confectionary. Our Sesame-based products’ quality and flavors are nowhere to be found. Our products include Halva, Tahini, Covered nuts, and Premium Tea Fusions. Owning a SUMSUM store means having the most stand-out store in your area. The design and the assortment are like no other store. SUMSUM franchise will offer its rich experience in retail and marketing to our franchisees with the supply of SUMSUM premium products. Currently, SUMSUM has 2 stores in the US and stores in Amsterdam, London, Hawaii and Germany. - Seasonality. Generally, in Europe and the US, retail revenues of the second half of the year comprise 60% of total annual revenues. This is due to the increased sales in the summer and in the holiday season. In Dubai and Kuwait, retail revenues are more evenly distributed during the year. This is due to the more comfortable weather and the higher concentration of retail in shopping malls. - Business Strategy: Expanding in the US to obtain a strong foothold. Since SUMSUM’s management has extensive and successful experience in the US retail market, it was decided that the US would be the natural route for expansion. - Wholesaling to retail chains. SUMSUM recognizes the organic food retail chains, such as Whole Foods and Trader Joe's, as a major growth factor. This might require a partnership with an acquainted figure in the retail space. Since there is a risk that the premium prices of SUMSUM stores will be affected, products sold via retail chains will be under a separate brand, to disassociate between the SUMSUM franchise brand and the wholesale brand. - Online Store and e-Commerce. As part of SUMSUM's strategy to reach a larger audience, SUMSUM has an online store and is in the final stages of opening a store on Amazon. The stores will be a complimentary channel to the traditional brick-and-mortar channel. It is expected that the online store and the Amazon store will be more lucrative in the US, due to the higher usage of US customers in online channels in comparison to other regions. - In-house – Manufacturing & Packaging in the US: Halva factory in the US. As part of the extensive expenditure to the US via retail stores (franchise and self-owned), e-commerce, and wholesaling to retail chains, it is a necessity to establish a Halva factory in the US. Subject to minimal volumes, the US Halva factory will: - Reduce immensely shipping costs; - Gain SUMSUM full control of inventory and product development; - Enable the wholesale operation of large retail chains; and. - Allow higher growth in franchise stores by eliminating logistics barriers. - Expenditure of product portfolio. - Development of new products. SUMSUM is a continuous effort to expand its portfolio of Halva and Tahini products in its stores. This will be easily achieved at an in-house factory. - Embedding 3rd party complementary products. SUMSUM is collaborating with 3rd party suppliers of confectionary and savory products that complement the SUMSUM assortment. The main focus is date-based products and sesame-based products, which have a long shelf life and are a natural fit for SUMSUM’s product portfolio. - Franchising in the US, Dubai, and Kuwait. As SUMSUM launched its franchise store in Hawaii and Philadelphia, the franchise is on the verge of engaging with 2 master franchises in Dubai and Kuwait and expanding the Hawaii franchise in Hawaii and other states in the US. The agreement denotes the terms for the opening of several potential franchise stores. - The mentioned sales figures for the franchise format are based on our existing sales. These figures are based on an assumption of getting 40 to 50 customers in a day. The promoter is based out of Israel and the company is registered in Miami, USA. The business is fully compliant with all necessary certificates and licenses.

In 1999, Gerhard Kolflaath, the founder of Vabene, developed the concept in Sweden and Italy, Vabene’s mission was simple; to bridge the gap between Italian quality manufacturers and the Swedish market. Vabene has been developed in close cooperation with Italian producers and supplies products wherever Vabene established itself. Initial production began in two factories serving kitchens and bathrooms. Vabene has now expanded worldwide working as a single-source turnkey supplier for all your Italian interior products and services in one convenient location, with 28 affiliated factories. Our representation of strong Italian producers, some of which have been operating for over 50 years, gives us a commanding position in the market. The Vabene brand today consists of two concepts: Vabene Casa, the flagship store that retails: Kitchen, Bath and furniture but also a range of design services. Vabene casa is generally around 800-1000 Sq. M. the second brand in the portfolio is Vabene itself which concentrates on kitchen and bathroom space requirements 300-500 Sq. M. Our customers beyond end-consumers include: Interior designers, Architects, fit-out companies and property developers, and the suppliers within the Vabene network are geared for large projects such as Hotels, Large mansions and large residential projects. In terms of positioning, Hacker is the brand that price-wise comes closest to Vabene, but Vabene has a larger range. Vabene is a no-royalty franchise model, with high margins and great expansion potential. No stock is maintained as the products are all produced based on customer requirements. The projected figures have been achieved in the other stores currently operating for the business & the same is expected to be replicated in the franchises as well.
