It’s hard to resist the sweet aroma of a
crepe. First established in 2004, Crepe
Delicious grew to more than 50 locations
across Canada and internationally, from
Kuwait to Malaysia. “It’s the result of work-
ing hard and seeing who is behind the
brand to achieve results,” says Elik Farin,
COO. “We are the biggest crepe franchise
in the world. No one is doing crepes and
gelato the way we are doing it.”
Stylish, appealing store fronts exude
opulence, but Farin is quick to point out
that high standards and quality doesn’t
mean an expensive price tag. With com-
petitive construction and equipment
costs, Crepe Delicious is one of the low-
est build-outs in the market. More than 90
per cent of locations are situated in prime
shopping centres. “This is not an easy
task,” says Farin. “We did our homework
and built relationships to develop our con-
cept in high-traffic areas.”
The healthy, easy-to-prepare menu isversatile and unique, from savoury crepes
filled with fresh vegetables, lean meats,
and cheeses to sweet indulgences, like
dessert crepes and a signature gelato,
made on-site. The menu is versatile, from
breakfast to dessert.
The franchise is easy to operate, with
no heavy equipment, which helps facili-
tate financing and approval for those look-
ing to make an investment. “Sometimes,
people want to be their own boss, but they
are afraid. They are not by themselves
with a franchise.”Franchise units in Canada:
