Basilico
The key to the success and profitability of Basilico Kitchens is that it truly offers something for everyone.
From 18- to 34-year-old vegans pizza fans and 50-year-old professionals to protein-conscious gym users wanting healthier options, this range of premium pizza brands opens a world of choice for your customers and more revenue for you.
Its model is tried, tested, and rapidly expanding. The target is 400 locations in the United Kingdom within five years. This explosive growth is broadly due to two things:

How does the Basilico restaurant franchise business model work?
Basilico franchisees gain exclusive rights to sell Basilico and its range of virtual pizza brands in a selected area in the United Kingdom. And all for one simple, flat royalty fee.
If you’ve got an existing unit, Basilico will work with you to change the branding. Alternatively, you can lease a newly fitted store on a turnkey basis with no upfront property costs. In other words, there’s virtually no barrier to entry.
Once your franchise is up and running, you’ll enjoy the following benefits:
Plus, franchises are easy to scale with low-skilled staff and minimal space. So, in summary, the franchise model is seamless.
What Basilico is looking for in its franchisees?
Basilico pizza is a premium Italian food product. That’s why the company is looking for ambitious people with a passion for high-quality ingredients, products, and service. If you weren’t a franchisee, you’d be a customer.
Its pizza restaurants have a typical capital value of £300,000 to £500,000. The type of person who flourishes with this model is someone with the hunger to work hard and ambitions to eventually run two or three stores.
Basilico is also a customer-centric brand. Its offering is built on research and feedback so it can truly offer what customers want, including vegan options. For this reason, it loves to work with franchisees who are customer-focused. Basilico can even tell you what the favoured social media channel is for each of its virtual brands so you can get the best return when marketing your new menu.
What training and support does Basilico provide its franchisees?
It’s fair to say you’re in safe hands with the Basilico franchise. After all, it has been successfully franchising for 20 years.
As a franchisee, you’ll receive full initial training and on-site support while you get up and running. You’ll then receive ongoing support in the form of training materials and regular training visits.
Plus, the team sets up all the Deliveroo and Uber Eats accounts for franchisees, so you can tick that off your to-do list straight away.


How much does a Basilico franchise cost?
The franchise fee to grant you exclusive geographical areas in which to serve Basilico Kitchens and all of its virtual brands is £15,000-plus VAT. The typical capital value for stores is £300,00 to £500,000.
The typical profits per outlet (excluding manager/franchisee) is £50,000-£100,000.
One pizza takeaway that introduced two of its virtual brands at two locations enjoyed the following results:
