Initial Training Programme

Kebab Nation provides a comprehensive training programme covering all aspects of running a successful franchise operation. The training system covers fundamentals of running a successful Kebab Nation business, building upon franchisees' prior experience and skill set.

Training duration for a new store opening is a minimum of 3 months, including training for both the franchisee and all new staff. The programme includes:

• Pre-store opening (including training and preparation)
• Soft Opening (1 week)
• Additional Support Week (1 week)

The training covers multiple operational areas including how to build kebabs and assemble HSPs, safety and people management, marketing, food preparation, meat cutting, and customer service procedures.

Ongoing Operational Support

Franchisees receive dedicated operational assistance through a dedicated Operations Manager who provides both remote support and scheduled on-site visits. The operations team helps franchisees get their business started and continues working with them to ensure optimal performance.

Franchisees have access to comprehensive training materials to help ensure all team members understand Kebab Nation procedures. The franchise owner and store manager receive training in every aspect of running the business, whilst additional staff are trained according to their specific responsibilities.

Marketing and Brand Support

Kebab Nation's marketing team manages all major national campaigns, digital advertising, promotions, new product development, and point-of-sale materials. All marketing initiatives focus on bringing new customers to stores and encouraging repeat visits.

The franchisor hosts major social media pages for the brand and provides posting guidelines for franchisees' self-managed local pages. Franchisees are encouraged to engage with their local community through marketing initiatives suited to their area.

Comprehensive Business Support

Being part of Kebab Nation means franchisees are supported 100% of the way and have access to management training and network conferences. The support structure includes tools and resources to help franchisees grow and operate their businesses effectively.

Franchisees also have the opportunity to attend management training sessions and network conferences as part of the ongoing support framework.

Personal Attributes and Mindset

Kebab Nation seeks like-minded, ambitious partners who demonstrate specific personal qualities essential for success. Franchisees must be customer focused - individuals who not only want to make money but are willing to dedicate themselves to ensuring every kebab and HSP is served with a friendly smile and made with care. Candidates need to be great communicators who can foster relationships within their communities.

The brand prioritises partners who are team and people orientated - those who love what they do and are passionate about working as a team. Teamwork, respect, and loyalty define the Kebab Nation team culture, with a focus on working together and changing lives as their formula for success.

Quality and Standards Commitment

Franchisees must demonstrate an unwavering commitment to quality as the number one priority. Partners must be committed to using high-quality ingredients and ordering from preferred local suppliers that meet Kebab Nation's standards. This dedication to quality sets the brand apart from other neighbourhood kebab shops that put cost-cutting before quality.

Successful candidates must be able to follow world-class systems to precision and train their teams on the correct procedures to ensure only top quality is achieved consistently.

Experience and Background Requirements

No food industry experience is required to become a Kebab Nation franchisee. The comprehensive training programme will train candidates on every aspect of the business, followed by two weeks of opening support. The training system builds upon prior experience and skill sets, regardless of industry background.
