There might be other unique situations or locations in your city or country.  CPG will gladly work with you on them.

 

 

Café LaVita Partner/Owner Qualifications

Be a business professional or a corporate entity with good reputation, strong financial background, and proven expertise in retail and/or food service operations.

General Capital Requirements:

To open 1 unit of Café LaVita:  US$175,000 in cash, liquid assets, or available financing.

To open 2 to 6 units of Café LaVita:  US$160,000 per Café in cash, liquid assets, or available financing.

To open 7 or more units of Café LaVita:  US$145,000 per Café in cash, liquid assets, or available financing.

The capital requirements are necessary for a Café LaVita owner to complete the design and construction, as well as the purchase of equipment, supplies, furniture, signage, water purification system, electrical system, audio-visual system, alarm system, cash management system, opening inventory and other core elements for a Standard Size Café LaVita.  These costs are based on current costs of goods in the USA in general.
