What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Crave's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if you currently own and operate a Crave Restaurant and want to open a Crave Food Truck, the initial franchise fee for the Food Truck is reduced to $20,000. This is a discount from the standard initial franchise fee of $30,000 for a Crave Food Truck.
This reduced fee is a benefit for existing Crave franchisees looking to expand their business with a different franchise model. It lowers the upfront investment required to add a food truck to their portfolio.
It is important to note that this reduced fee applies only if you already own and operate a Crave Restaurant. If you do not own a Crave Restaurant, you will be required to pay the full initial franchise fee of $30,000 for a Crave Food Truck.
