This is a business where you are in control. Working from home, with minimal overheads and a dedicated territory in which to operate, franchisees are able to make exceptional returns, whilst being in control of their own business.

The Unique Phat Van
The Phat Van has been developed for the exclusive use of our franchisees – everyone who sees the Phat Van loves the great styling and instantly recognizes the brand. Operating from Monday – Friday and to a set routine from 9am – 1:30pm each day, we are able to bring a fabulous, ‘funky’ operation to the workplace – our customers just can’t get enough of us!
The Phat Van can also be used at weekends to cater for events, from football tournaments, village fetes and private parties. It really is a versatile business that allows franchisees to develop their business to suit their circumstances.
The Phat Van is available to franchisees to lease over a 5 year period (subject to status), thus allowing franchisees to pay for the vehicle as they go along and reducing their capital outlay.
Great Products
At the heart of this business are our award winning traditional, hand crimped, Cornish pasties from Newquay, Cornwall. These pasties are delivered to you frozen each week and you simply bake them off. Using our proprietary oven system, we are able to bake over 12 varieties of Cornish pasties and savoury items on the Phat Van each day. To compliment the Phat Pasty range we make fresh homemade Phin sandwiches, baguettes, salads and soups, each created to our own recipes and packaged in the Phat Pasty packaging… we really do have something for everyone.
Quality of Life
Working from home, this business is designed to fit around your lifestyle and to minimise the headaches of many franchise operations.
With No:
- Rents to pay
- People to employ
- Money to chase
- Major capital investment
This represents a great business return and allows franchisees to be up and running in as little as 8 weeks.
Some franchisees may decide to grow their business and to operate a management franchise, with a wider territory, developing a number of Phat Vans, which are then operated from a central lock-up kitchen and facility. We are able to help and advise you to find the best fit and the most appropriate route for you to take.
Affordable Franchise
We have developed an affordable package to cover everything that is required in setting up your Phat Pasty business. Total set up costs should be approximately £22,500 (plus Vat), this including your Franchise Fee, Franchise Package, initial van deposit, key equipment, legal costs and initial stock. The Phat Van can be leased over a 5 year period, making this a fantastic, low cost franchise.
Fixed Fees
We do not believe in franchisees paying percentage royalties and prefer a simple fixed weekly fee to cover the ongoing use of the Phat Pasty brand, operational support and a contribution to corporate marketing - our current Management Services Fee and Marketing Levy is just £150 per week (per vehicle operated).
"Are you what we are looking for?"
This is an important and life-changing decision. You will have lots of questions and want to see how the business could work for you. We also want to be sure that our franchisees are a great fit with our business and meet our requirements in building the Phat Pasty brand. Once you have received our full information pack, completed our application form and had an informal chat, we can get together to show you this exciting opportunity.
