The financial side of franchising a Squeeze In is surprisingly refreshing! Our standout feature is the low start-up costs compared to the rest of the breakfast space. How do we keep our costs so low? A few different ways-1. We help you choose locations that are no more than 2,500 sq. ft. endcap or in-line spaces in a major tenant anchored shopping center, and 2. We allow YOU, the owner, to customize your restaurant with all consigned treasures YOU find to fit the local vibe of your home town. Imagine it: You, a three store Squeeze In owner for the price of opening one location of the big box breakfast brands! Franchising with Squeeze In is a smart investment for a flavorful future! Here are a few important costs associated with opening a Squeeze In. Again, don’t worry, we will cover all expenses on our first call. The total investment range to open a Squeeze In location is between $223,000 up to $605,000. This range covers all of your costs- franchise fees, estimated leasehold improvements, training, furniture, fixtures and all equipment. Many factors to go into these numbers such as real estate & construction costs, size of location and other varying considerations. We help you keep costs low with a streamlined kitchen layout and smaller overall footprint.
At Squeeze In, our commitment to our franchisees is as robust as our omelettes! We kickstart your journey with an extensive training program that covers every ingredient needed for a thriving Squeeze In restaurant both before and after your store opening. The support doesn’t stop there – you’ll receive ongoing eggs-cellent support with quarterly operational visits and on-demand guidance, marketing expertise and collateral design- limited time only promotions to keep your customers coming back for more and efficient supply chain management where we are negotiating the best pricing to pass along to you, our franchise family. We’re here to help make your Squeeze In adventure sizzle with success!
The journey from signing your franchise agreement to the grand opening of your Squeeze In can vary, but it’s always an eggs-citing process! The timeline typically spans between 6 to 12 months, influenced by factors like choosing the perfect site, navigating lease negotiations, completing construction, and acquiring the necessary licenses. Each step brings you closer to the big day when you open your doors and start sharing the Squeeze In love with your community!
We are looking for individuals who have a passion and desire to serve their communities with the best breakfast in town while committing to upholding eggs-cellent servant leadership with both guests and our associates (staff).

Our existing family of franchisees are continuing to dominate the breakfast space in their areas by continuing to grow their portfolio of In Squeeze In locations and we would like to do the same with you! Even if you just want to own 1 in your area, we still would love to talk to you!
Last but not least, our financial requirements. To open 1 Squeeze In location, you will need to have a minimum of liquid/cash assets of $200k and a total net worth of around $500k.These requirements are based on the ability to get a loan, if necessary. If you don’t meet the financial requirements, we are open to partnerships to help you achieve your dream of owning a Squeeze In.
