The company provides training and training modules to the designer/s and the installation supervisor and these candidates are expected to be hired before the launch of the store by the Franchisee. With the assistance of their installation supervisor, the franchise partner can source a team on contract (modular furniture installers are available – WIFY & Urban Company) for their installation activities and Lecco Cucina will provide guidance.
The company is flexible on these terms. We can deliver it to both the places but we suggest delivering the product to the client’s location. In this case, the franchise partners need not hold any kind of Inventory
Three kitchens would almost cover the variety of products being offered and hence suggested to display all three.

The marketing team also works on various other portals, collaborations, instore events in order to expand the network and attract footfall.

We extend our support right from the pitch to closing the deal and any B2B enquiries directly approaching the company will be re-routed to the nearest
Experience Centre as per client’s location.
Installation (Technical) Supervisor should be hired under Franchisee payroll to fulfil this role
The technical person is an installation supervisor who is expected to visit the customer’s site and coordinate with the installation team and the product dispatches from our factory. However, his training will be done by the company and is expected to join 15 days before the Launch of the store. He is expected to be technically sound, coordinated with the SOPs of the organization and a subject matter expert.
The designer is expected to work from the store, communicate with the clients, visit the site (if required) and coordinate with the rest of the Experience Centre team. Hence, the franchise partners are expected to have them locally hired and on their payroll. However, the training will be done by the company and he/she is expected to join 15 days before the Launch of the Experience Centre. The company may assist on such hiring processes.
Basic knowledge of AutoCAD and good communication skills
We use a premium Spanish software called TEOWIN. It is an all-in-one software which helps the designers to design and also auto-calculate the quotations and other technical details.
In case the location is identified as a potential market, the company may decide to open multiple Experience Centres. In case there are existing franchise partners in the vicinity, the first right of refusal and priority would be given to the existing partners. The franchise partners should meet the minimum criteria and sales target for the organization to consider them.
No, the amount of 25-35 lakhs approx. mentioned as a part of the investment (capex) proposal includes instore expenses such as interiors, signages, furnitures, partitions, electricals, inauguration expenses, misc. expenses, etc. which will be spent by the Franchisee directly to the respective vendors. Lecco Cucina would receive the franchise fee, display products and its transportation cost, design software royalty fee, etc.
Yes, the franchise fee is a one-time payment. However, renewal of the agreement sign-up will be done (paperwork) every 5 years.
The product is directly delivered to the client’s location in most cases and hence, there is ZERO inventory holding / inventory holding costs. Everything is “MADE TO ORDER”
Franchisee partner will need to follow his/her own billing methods / software; however our design software will assist the partner with auto pricing.
Both company and franchisee can mutually decide on the same on case to case basis.
