Q: Are their any special incentives for aspiring franchisees?

A: Yes. Monterey Foods Corporation is offering P35,000 worth of NMS stocks for FREE! These can be used as initial stocks which can help the franchisee start their business. This offer is available to the FIRST 100 approved franchisees.

Q: Is there any special payment/installment schemes for those who are interested to franchise?

A: For now, there isn't any. The franchise fee of P200,000 shall be paid up-front, once contract has been signed. As for the equipment, the suppliers shall allow special payment schemes as facilitated by Monterey Foods, Corp.

Q: Regarding the equipment, can the franchisee use other suppliers other than those prescribed?

A: No. The reason why suppliers are prescribed is because their equipment have undergone rigorous testing, designed to simulate the actual day-to-day operation of the outlet. In addition, the rates have been negotiated to effect corporate rates.

Q: What is the expected ROI of Monty's?

A: Each outlet will have its own ROI, depending on factors such as traffic count, product mix and location. Prior to operating a Monty's outlet, each franchisee MUST accomplish a feasibility study which aims to examine the location of the outlet and determine the above-mentioned factors, which will be incorporated in the outlet's P&L scenario.

Q: If I want to become a franchisee of Monty's, what are the initial steps and with whom shall I coordinate with?

A: The first step is to submit a letter of intent, which signifies your interest to operate a Monty's outlet in a chosen location. This should be submitted to / coordinated with:

The Business Development Officer Monty's Business Development Group Monterey Foods, Corporation, 17th Floor, JMT Corporate Condominum, ADB Avenue, Ortigas, Pasig City Tel # (+632) 702 - 5569 Fax # (+632) 914 - 8750

Q: I have a location, but management doesn't allow cooking which involves excessive smoke, especially during grilling. Is there any alternative?

A: Yes. In cases where smoke is not allowed, alternate "smokeless" cooking equipment. (instead of heating elements located below the product being cooked, which creates smoke when it comes in contact with oil or "sebo", the heating elements are located above the products to prevent any contact with oil / "sebo").

Ex: Salamander for grilling & Rotisserie oven
