How Cheese Corner says an outlet's numbers work. These are illustrations, not guarantees — check them against existing franchisees before you sign.

6 months – 9 months

Cheese Corner's blog guide (19 Aug 2026) says the expected return-on-investment period is '6 to 9 months' and claims a 50-65% gross margin; its franchise page says 55-60% gross margin 'before rent, staff and utilities' and declines to quote a take-home figure. No outlet P&L, sample size or franchisee data is published, and the 6-9 month figure sits against a 6-7 L investment the brand does not firmly state.

  Company-data mirror shows negative return ratios next to FY25 growth (filed accounts not read)

  Tofler's free page for Zorko Limited (the entity the brand's site names) shows return on equity of -23.69 and return on capital employed of -21.02 on a March 2025 basis, alongside reported FY25 growth of 54.47% in revenue, 71.64% in EBITDA and 84.17% in net profit; amounts are paywalled. This is a ratio summary from a company-data mirror, not a reading of the filed accounts, and the ratios sit oddly beside the growth figures, so no loss or decline is asserted.

Ask Before You Sign

Questions tailored to what Cheese Corner does and doesn't publish.

1. 1Speak 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.
2. 2Get a written, itemised cost breakdown — the brand hasn't published one.
3. 3Ask for every upfront payment in writing — deposit, onboarding, equipment or stock — and which parts are refundable.
4. 4Ask exactly how your margin or commission is calculated, when it's paid, and whether the brand can change it.
5. 5Ask for the agreement term, renewal fee and exit or transfer terms.
6. 6Ask whether you get an exclusive territory, and how large it is.
7. 7Have a lawyer review the franchise agreement before paying anything.
8. 8Visit 2–3 existing outlets and speak to their owners without the brand present.
