Q.  What is unique about your franchise that results in satisfied, profitable franchisees?

Fresh Soup Company – the country’s leading Fast-Casual soup restaurant concept – has been defining the category with its award-winning soups, salads and sandwiches, served in a casual, comfortable setting. Each Zoup! location offers 12 hand-crafted soup varieties each day, from its collection of hundreds of proprietary recipes.

Part of what makes the concept unique is a system that allows franchisees to focus on the “front of house” – customer service, store appearance and marketing. Simplified menu items require no cooking and little preparation.
