Why spot?
Spot is NOT a predictable fast food joint that serves desserts, but a foodie experience, as we set trends with new and unique products that keep our customers coming back. Spot desserts are always in demand, making market saturation a non-factor.
Our success together in franchising will be a targeted growth strategy, basing development expansion on the best locations and partners.
What does it take?
Dedication. Expertise. Passion.
Franchise ownership is not for everyone. A successful Spot Dessert Bar franchise owner must be dedicated, a team player, willing and comfortable.
