I Heart Mac & Cheese is a rapidly expanding fast-casual concept specializing in customizable, made-to-order macaroni and cheese bowls with a variety of health-conscious bases including quinoa, broccoli, cauliflower, gluten-free pasta, grilled cheese sandwiches. With vegan cheese sauce and plant-based proteins, I Heart Mac & Cheese continues to evolve to meet the needs of our guests.
Our ideal partner is some who is goal driven with a history of building successful teams or successful in prior business operations.
While we expect our franchisees to be actively involved in the operation of their businesses, it is not necessary that they are the manager of one of their locations. Typically, our franchisees sign up for multiple locations and hire restaurant managers to manage the individual locations. Then they manage the overall business.
Building an I Heart Mac & Cheese franchise is fairly simple compared to most fast casual restaurant concepts as there is: NO need for a hood system in most municipalities NO need for grease traps in most municipalities NO need for gas lines since all of the equipment utilized in the restaurant is electric The utilization of electrical equipment for cooking instead of fryers, gas stoves and other hazardous, fume or flame producing equipment allows for easier and safer operation as well as flexibility on choice of franchise location.
