Baskin-Robbins Franchise Investment Pitch Deck 2026

Why is now the right time for this unit?

The local market is seeing a surge in young families and medical professionals who need premium, convenient dessert options. This unit fills the gap for high-quality celebratory treats in a rapidly growing residential hub.

Market Timing

• Rising local population density
• High medical hub foot traffic
• Lack of premium cake options

How is this solution better than local rivals?

This unit offers a multi-channel experience that combines a high-visibility storefront with digital kiosks and integrated delivery. To be fair, most local shops lack the technology to capture the treat-at-home market effectively.

Competitive Edge

• Proprietary flavor rotation
• In-store mobile ordering kiosks
• Custom cake digital consultations

Who are the customers and what is the potential?

The primary customers are families and professionals within a five-mile radius of the town center. With a year-one revenue target of $650,000, the unit is positioned to capture a significant share of local celebratory spending.

Market Opportunity

• $650,000 year-one sales target
• $1,175,000 year-five revenue potential
• Local school and sports partnerships

What are the primary drivers of profitability?

Profitability is driven by high-margin scoop sales and customizable ice cream cakes. Here's the quick math: with a 5.9% royalty and 5% marketing fee, store-level EBITDA reaches $156,000 in the first year if labor stays on plan.

Revenue Model

• $240,000 year-one scoop sales
• $120,000 ice cream cake revenue
• 5.9% fixed royalty structure

How does the unit defend its market share?

The unit uses a community-first strategy and national brand power to stay ahead of local independent shops. Strong partnerships with schools and sports organizations create a defensible moat that local restaurants cannot easily replicate.

Defensible Edge

• National brand recognition
• Exclusive 31-flavor product line
• Community-centric loyalty events

What funding is required to hit milestones?

Total startup capital must cover the $225,000 leasehold improvements and $95,000 in refrigeration equipment. This investment will defintely support the goal of reaching breakeven by April 2026, just four months after launch.

Capital and Milestones

• $225,000 for build-out costs
• $95,000 for refrigeration gear
• 4-month breakeven target date

Finance: update unit break-even and payback model by Friday.
