Overview
Brown’s Chicken & Pasta is committed
to controlled expansion of completely new store sites and the redevelopment
of our current restaurant locations. This business practice encourages
growth of locally based ownership and management of restaurants.
All new franchises awarded will actually be two opportunities in one. The company is in an aggressive redevelopment stage as existing Brown’s Chicken & Pasta restaurants are being remodeled and re-tooled to incorporate our new CHICAGO WAY sandwich brand.

Training & Support
Brown’s requires that
the franchisee complete an extensive eight-week training program
that covers all areas of business operations, store maintenance
procedures, and marketing/advertising.
Brown’s provides operational specialists who bring with them technical expertise in all areas of business. We also have a staff of marketing, purchasing and financial specialists to assist you.
Brown’s has designed a complete set of forms to facilitate sales accounting, cash control, inventory control, and cost analysis. You can also work with our cost control department and gain weekly insight into your store’s profitability.
Why Brown's Chicken & Pasta?
The introduction of CHICAGO
WAY sandwiches to our existing restaurant operation has sparked
new sales and customer traffic opportunities. Operating within the
same site that houses our primary Brown’s Chicken & Pasta
restaurant concept, the CHICAGO WAY sandwich menu brings new daypart
appeal to the location. Brown’s traditional business is largely
generated through the evening daypart. The CHICAGO WAY sandwich
line opens the lucrative lunch and fringe daypart markets to the
franchise.
All future franchise development will be a combined Brown’s Chicken & Pasta and THE CHICAGO WAY as a single dual-concept operation.

Are You a Good Fit for Brown's Chicken & Pasta?
We are looking for owner/operators who will
be involved in both the day to day operations of their store
and the community it serves.
To best serve the store’s community, Brown’s wants its franchisee owners to become part of that community and encourages them to live in the immediate area.
Brown’s Real Estate Department is in touch with developers whose projects are both existing and in the early planning stage. You can also bring a potential location to Brown’s Real Estate Department for their approval. From time to time, Brown’s also has existing restaurant locations available.
The initial franchise fee is $25,000; leasehold improvements are approximately $30,000 – $200,000; and restaurant equipment is approximately $100,000 - $140,000. This is assuming a leased location.
To open a store you will need a minimum of $100,000 - $125,000 along with a strong financial statement to finance the balance.
