Still, Little Caesars is able to keep startup cost low thanks to a stripped-down operating model that doesn’t require a large dining room with seating and can be operated out a tight retail space between 1,200 – 1,600 square feet in size. Keep in if you plan to open the restaurant in a market with above average commercial real estate prices (I’m looking at your California), you could end up closer to the higher end of the investment scale. On average, it will cost $360,000 all the way up to $1.6 million to open a Little Caesars location. But I want to offer up a simple ball-park figure as an estimate.
It’s tough to calculate a franchisee’s “typical income” since there are many factors that contribute net profits like location, marketing skills, customers service, and food waste. After operating expenses, the average Little Caesars franchise owner will bring in $50,000 to $200,000 each year.
