When looking for suitable Franchisees to join our network, we are looking for people who are:

• Passionate about the brand
• Focussed and committed
• Entrepreneurial and ambitious
• Strong communicators
• Financially capable
• Energetic, organised and efficient
• Driven to succeed
• Adaptable and resilient
• Great leaders, but also team players
• Community focused
• Willing to follow the Bakers Delight system

To be considered as a Franchisee, it is a requirement that you hold Australian Permanent Residency or Citizenship. 

Not at all!

While we do have Franchisees within our network who are qualified bakers, it’s not a requirement to franchise with us. 

We welcome Franchisees from all walks of life. From tradespeople to corporate workers, no matter your background, our 16 week training program is designed to provide you with the tools required to become a Franchisee.

Training is conducted in a bakery in your state, close to where you reside. You will be hosted by an experienced Franchisee and a dedicated Training and Development Consultant.

To ensure that you are fully capable to successfully operate your bakery, we require you to undertake our 16 week training program. You’ll need to show competency in all modules, including baking.

You will be mentored by an experienced Franchisee and have the support of our training and development team to gain the relevant skills to run your business. Remember, you’re in business for yourself but not by yourself.

Although we do not provide finance / loans, as an established franchise system, we are accredited with a number of banks across Australia. As a general rule, a bank may lend up to 60% of the funds; the purchaser is then required to fund the balance through cash or equity in assets.

Absolutely! In fact, over 40% of our network are multi-site operators.

To become a multi-site operator you’ll need to meet the selection criteria, undertake additional training and be approved by Bakers Delight.
