Ask before you sign
- Speak to at least 3 franchisees who have run an outlet for 2+ years and see their actual monthly sales and profit — a franchisor making money doesn't mean its franchisees do.
- Get a written, itemised cost breakdown — the brand hasn't published one.
- Ask for the one-time franchise fee in writing, and whether any part is refundable.

Our Estimates
FranchiseChuno estimateBrunch Italino doesn't publish these, so here is our best read of the market and how we got there. They are our estimates, not the brand's figures — use them to plan, then confirm the real numbers in writing.
Investment to open a small Brunch Italino cake shop
₹6–10 L*
Brunch Italino publishes no investment. Winni's own franchise page (winni.in/franchise, read Oct 2026) lists ₹6–12 L plus GST for its 150–250 sq ft 'QSR' cake-counter format. A small Brunch Italino counter supplied from a central kitchen needs fit-out and signage, display chillers and a freezer, a billing system, opening stock and any joining fee; the rent deposit and GST are extra and vary by town. Treat this as a rough guide and confirm with existing franchisees.
