With demand for virtual brands on the rise, Dish’d partners are earning up to £20,000 per week
Food businesses throughout the UK are benefitting by as much as £8,000–£20,000 per week by partnering with Dish’d, a franchise model that’s designed to unlock the potential of existing commercial kitchens. With low startup costs, premium virtual brands, and comprehensive operational support, Dish’d is offering food entrepreneurs new ways to expand their income streams.
Having recently celebrated the launch of its 50th franchise location, Dish’d is rapidly expanding across England, Scotland and Wales, in the process proving that its model delivers consistent, exceptional results.
Restaurant-quality brands
Since its launch in 2023, Dish’d has built a reputation for popular, trend-focused food brands that drive repeat business. The company’s development team continuously researches emerging food trends, creating brands that stand out from the crowd in a competitive market.
Among Dish’d’s growing portfolio are:
- Eugreeka! – Tasty Greek classics made with supersoft handmade pittas
- Leb + Nöm – A feast from the Middle East, delivered straight to your door
- Bao + Bowls – Soft fluffy baos & steaming bowls
- Wingology – Gourmet fried chicken never tasted so good!
Low startup costs, impressive returns
Getting up and running as a Dish’d franchisee requires minimal investment, as all the menus are designed to work using existing commercial kitchens. Alternatively, franchisees may choose to launch a standalone business operating a dark kitchen, with much lower setup costs than a branded retail space.
The Dish’d team works with franchisees to forecast sales opportunities in their area and identify which of its brands will work best. It then helps to optimise their operations, advise on marketing to attract and retain customers, and provide guidance in the form of a comprehensive onboarding process.
Supporting success
One way in which Dish’d stands out from the crowd is how it works with its franchise partners at every step to support their success. This support includes face-to-face meetings, help to optimise kitchen setups, and training for franchisees’ teams in their own kitchens.
Many franchisees choose to integrate Dish’d brands alongside their existing takeaway or restaurant business, while others opt to launch standalone dark kitchen ventures to capitalise on the booming food delivery market.
Who makes a good Dish’d franchise partner?
The Dish’d model is ideal for restaurant owners, takeaway operators, and commercial kitchen owners looking to expand their earnings without the risks associated with opening a new restaurant. With a proven track record, scalable model, and ongoing support, Dish’d offers a low-risk, high-reward opportunity for ambitious food entrepreneurs.
Umar – Dish’d franchisee
“My friend, who is also a franchisee, calls me every week saying thank you. He wasn’t doing well. He had a bricks-and-mortar. He wasn’t having footfall. Now, he’s doing £7,500–£8,000 a week). It’s got low investment, and if you have a bricks-and-mortar already, it’s a no-brainer.”
