Unlike the fat-laden dishes served by some other fast food establishments, Macaro’s offers its customers a host of options for their daily lunch and dinner. We bring together only the freshest, most flavorful ingredients to create masterpieces for your mouth that don’t sit heavily on the stomach after you’ve eaten them.
Our soups are made fresh every day – our Hoagies, Cheese Steaks and Wraps are made while you watch – and our foods are prepared according to your individual needs right before your eyes.
Macaro’s Franchise System offers the systems, procedures, and ongoing support necessary to give you the best opportunity for success. Macaro’s is now committed to bringing the same great reputation to a wider audience through franchising.
While it is true that you can enter this highly competitive marketplace on your own, keep in mind that approximately 75% of all new business start ups fail annually, whereas over 90% of all franchises sold are still in business over 10 years after opening their doors for business.
One of the biggest reasons for failure is that independent entrepreneurs are on their own! The often complicated and extended process of taking an idea from concept stage all the way to opening the doors to the public can prove to be quite a heavy burden for even the most savvy of entrepreneurs. With no hand to hold, no expert to guide them through each stage of setting up the business, and no one to turn to when things get tough, their new business can very often fall on hard times.
At Macaro’s, you don’t need to reinvent the wheel, because we’ve already done a lot of the hard work. Here’s what we already offer to our Franchisees:
¬ Proven business models
¬ Good systems and procedures
¬ Verified recipes and techniques
¬ Expertise in finding suitable store locations
¬ Extensive experience in helping to negotiate attractive leases
As you can see, over the years, we’ve developed a wealth of business knowledge that we’re ready to pass along to our Franchisees, who can enjoy a much greater level of comfort than those independent entrepreneurs who choose to go it alone.
We have the knowledge – pick our brains! Macaro’s has already encountered the pitfalls of business ownership. Over years of trial and error, we have made the changes necessary to improve our systems and operation to make it easily replicable and franchisable. Our Franchisees enjoy the guidance of the Franchisor right from stage one through to their store’s grand opening. In addition, even after opening their doors, we provide on going support to our Franchisees so they can overcome or altogether avoid the problems that many independent operations may experience.
Our systems and procedures are easily replicable, making the process that much easier for Franchisees who wish to open a store in more than one location.
In comparison with other stores that require enormous build-out costs, extensive and complicated menus and huge monthly lease payments, Macaro’s is much more affordable and surprisingly easy to re-create.
Macaro’s already has negotiated great buying power of their products and services. Our Franchisees receive the benefits of these savings, thus enabling their store’s operation to be even more profitable.

Since Macaro’s is a guest oriented establishment, we are looking for Franchisees who understand why customer service has to be our number one concern.
We’re not looking for idealists who only dream of owning a restaurant; we need Franchisees who are driven, passionate and fully committed to owning their own business – serious entrepreneurs who are taking steps to turn their dreams into reality.
Solid financial backing is a must. The challenges of new business ownership can seem rather overwhelming at first. During this stage, it is vitally important for the new business owner to be adequately funded in order to avoid unnecessary complications.
