  • 24/7 e-learning portal for new-hire onboarding.
Can I open in a non-traditional venue like a campus or airport?2025-05-02T23:27:13-04:00

Our current focus is inline and end-cap units, but the FDD permits non-traditional sites subject to separate approval. If you control a food-hall, campus, or travel-plaza location, we’ll review the opportunity case-by-case.

Does the brand assist with construction?2025-05-02T23:26:52-04:00

Yes. We or our designated vendor oversee bids, schedules, permits, and health-department approvals. The FDD allows us to charge a Build-out Management Fee ($10–25 K) which is already reflected in the Item 7 range.

What are the site and design requirements?2025-05-02T23:26:12-04:00
Key requirements include:

  • Minimum 18 ft frontage and strong daytime traffic.
  • Venting for a Type 1 hood (for our prep line).
  • Patio seating is preferred but not mandatory.
    We provide a prototype floor plan, décor palette, and equipment list. You must use an approved construction-management firm; build-out averages 8-12 weeks (Item 7 note 6).
Will Sus Hi Eatstation help me find and negotiate real estate?2025-05-02T23:25:46-04:00

Yes. After franchise signing we assign a real-estate manager who supplies site criteria, demographic mapping, and broker introductions. We review LOIs and must approve your final lease. Each restaurant typically occupies 1,800 – 2,200 sq ft in a high-visibility strip center or end-cap (Item 7 notes).

What are the financial requirements to qualify?2025-05-02T23:25:18-04:00

We look for at least $150,000 in liquid capital (cash or equivalents) and a minimum $500,000 net worth. These thresholds position you to obtain SBA or conventional financing and comfortably fund start-up cash-flow needs.

How much does a Sus Hi Eatstation franchise cost?2025-05-02T23:21:58-04:00
The total investment to open one Dojo ranges from $262,300 to $610,000 (Item 7). This figure includes the $40,000 initial franchise fee, leasehold improvements, equipment, opening inventory, three months of working capital, and a $10 – 15 K grand-opening marketing spend.
