Our Licensing Program
Golden Bird has been in the industry for over 50 years. Our
experience has allowed us to build a successful and long lasting
food concept. We represent an excellent and affordable business
opportunity for self-starters and entrepreneurs. Golden Bird offers
licenses, not franchises. What's the difference? Here are some
key distinctions between our licensing program and our
competitors' franchising programs:
- Golden Bird does not charge a monthly royalty fee, which would
require you to submit monthly reports to us evidencing your sales.
Instead, we charge a simple flat fee of $1,250.00 per month. With
a Golden Bird license, your sales are your business, not ours.
- Golden Bird has the smallest upfront fee in the industry.
- You may obtain a Golden Bird license without having to prove to us
the amount of money you have in the bank. You decide if you are
financially able.
- You are not locked into a contract. You are free to start at any
time and free to quit at any time.
- Except for a few proprietary mixes, we do not require you to
purchase products from specified vendors. You are free to
purchase from any reputable vendor as long as the quality meets
our current standards.
Below is a comparison of our licensing program with our
competitors' programs.
Note: Golden Bird, but none of the other companies listed above,
charges a flat licensing fee of $1,250.00 per month. Therefore, if
you had a KFC or Church's with monthly sales of $50,000, you
would incur Royalties/Advertising Fees of $5,000. With Golden
Bird, with the same $50,000 in monthly sales, you would incur a
licensing fee of only $1,250. The economic advantage is clear.

Our competitors generally have large capital
requirements and a large upfront cash payment to
them. Golden Bird has the smallest upfront fee and
does not have a specific capital requirement;
anyone with the desire and resources to open a
restaurant is able to do so under our program.
This allows the small entrepreneur entrance into an
established business with a successful track record.
Golden Bird will train you in the proper preparation of our products. While we do not require that licensees have prior
restaurant experience, we do note that such experience may aid in your success. Prior to opening your store, we
recommend that you spend at least two to three full days training with us at one of our locations and an additional two
days of training at your location with an approved trainer.
