Intro Call & Application
Our Franchise Recruitment Manager will contact you for a conversation and to provide you with an application form to see if you’re the passionate person and keen owner/operator we’re on the look out for. This is your chance to ask questions about us too and find out if we’re the doughnuts you’ve been dreaming about.
Discovery Meeting
Next up we meet! You’ve looked over our info pack & hopefully gone for a bite at one of our stores so we’ll get down to discussing the Walker’s Doughnuts business model, your experience, financials & stability and make sure it’s a match made in Doughnut heaven.
Deposit & Onboarding Start
Now that we approve of each other, it’s time to get the process really started. You’ll be asked to pay a fully refundable deposit of $3,300 which will go towards the cost of franchise & disclosure document preparation.
Approval & Agreement
Once your business & financial due diligence is complete, you will meet with the Walker’s Doughnuts franchisors, Jim & Rose, for your approval meeting. All things going swimmingly, you will be issued with our franchise agreements in their final form, Welcome to Walker’s!
Signing & Cooling-Off Period
Once the agreements are signed, along with the payment of the Franchise Fee, you will be given a 7 day cooling off period before we go any further. We want to be 100% sure this is the right fit for you and do make sure you’re consulting your advisers.
