Application and initial interview with our sales associate.
The very first step is submitting a preliminary application form.
Standard terms and information are required to complete in full prior to proceeding to the next step being the interview.
Application details include personal and professional information, previous experience and financial viability for the potential awarding of a Cinnzeo Bakery Cafe franchise.
Our due diligence ensures all required steps are followed while ensuring the potential partner is given a full and complete review.
Once your initial interview and application is shared and discussed with our executive team, the process proceeds to the Franchise Disclosure stage.

The FDD is submitted to all partners and confirmed as received for review by each potential partner(s). This document is very inclusive and detailed, and as such we require that all applicants review this with their potential partner(s). Each partner is required to be disclosed individually. We suggest your lawyer and financial lender are included in this FDD process to ensure the information is fully vetted and discussed. The FDD is expansive and inclusive of all details required under Canadian and Provincial franchise laws.
Timing for any next steps is (once the FDD is verified as complete) 14 days from completion.
This ‘cooling off’ period is required by both Canadian and Provincial franchise law.
During this time questions can be submitted and discussed but nothing more can be progressed until this period of 14 days is completed.

A tour / discovery meeting will be aligned to share with you at one of our locations in Calgary, Alberta.
A walk through and tour with one of our experienced Corporate Operations team will be an open and transparent opportunity to discuss questions one may have about the brand’s operations. Your sales professional will also be in attendance for any specific franchise agreement questions or additional FDD queries you may have.

Our agreements require to be aligned with an incorporated company and at this time you will need to ensure that you can provide incorporation details.

At this point in the process the prospective franchise partner is given additional time to discuss with their partner(s), review and submit potentially any additional questions or feedback on the brand.
During this time the partnership will need to ensure that they have reviewed and
completed their business planning for their selected lending partner (normally required for financing.) At this time, secured pre-approved financing or proof of financing available is required.
Prior to the franchise agreement moving to the execution stage, all applicants are required to sign off and allow submission of their criminal record check and financial wellness reporting through our vendor partner QSR Processing.
(The cost of this reporting is covered off by the Franchisor and will be of no cost to the applicant.)

Once all details are confirmed as agreeable and understood our team can then begin the preparation of the franchise agreement.
The franchise agreement is submitted and completed by your incorporated entity with all partners and approved Franchise Partners listed within. The franchise fee ($30,000) is now submitted.

As noted previously the FDD is a very expansive document and will include many items about sales, franchise growth and other pertinent topics regarding costs and scheduled items within all our franchise development.

Congratulations you have now been awarded a franchise with Cinnzeo Bakery Cafe!

Once the franchise agreement is executed, our search for your first
location will begin! Site selection and lease negotiations by our team commences. At this point you may have already suggested a spot or space which we will review.

Once the location is approved, architectural, mechanical, and electrical drawings are submitted to the city or region.

Our team designs and project manages the entire process with a close communication with you and your partners.

Up to two individuals are included in your agreement and will attend franchise partner training in Calgary, Alberta. Attendance will be between 2-3 weeks in duration.
