Want a Sushi franchise that fits your budget?
Take the franchise finderWhat goes into the cost of a sushi franchise?
The headline figure is the minimum investment — the realistic total you need to get up and running. It is usually made up of several parts:
- Franchise fee — a one-off licence fee paid to the franchisor for the brand, training and the right to operate. It is only part of the total cost.
- Set-up & equipment — vehicles, tools, stock, fit-out, technology or a unit — whatever the model needs to start trading.
- Working capital — money to cover the first few months of running costs before the business is cash-flow positive.
Across the sushi opportunities listed on FindMyFranchise, the minimum investment starts from £400, with a typical figure around £128,500 and the most established models reaching about £255,000.
Ongoing fees are separate from the start-up cost — most franchises charge a management service fee (royalty) on turnover and sometimes a marketing levy. Always check the figures in the franchise prospectus before committing.
