Do you have the interest, passion, entrepreneurial spirit, and readiness to operate as a café entrepreneur? We are looking for an entrepreneur in Turku. (Please note that we are looking only for an entrepreneur, not employees for Arnolds.) What does the chain offer? As an Arnolds entrepreneur, you will have access to a location, delicious products, a well-known brand, the benefits of the chain, and comprehensive support to build success, as well as training for all work tasks. The chain provides the entrepreneur with: initial training, financing advice, support in starting operations, launch marketing, premises, furniture and equipment, purchasing benefits, customer contacts, business guidance, continuing education, chain marketing, financial management services, advertising services, and sales support. What do we expect from the entrepreneur? As an Arnolds entrepreneur, you are responsible for all your café's business operations, including initial investments. The entrepreneur must be financially able to invest in entrepreneurship. The initial investment for the entrepreneur is €100,000–€150,000, and typically the self-financing share is 20–30% of the initial investment amount. In return, you will have access to a location, delicious products, the benefits of a well-known chain, support to build success, and training for all work tasks. As an Arnolds entrepreneur, you will work in the location yourself, setting an example for your staff through your own actions. The most important thing is the desire and ability to operate according to the concept as part of the Arnolds family. You do not necessarily need previous experience in entrepreneurship; your ability to cooperate and your attitude matter more. A genuine interest in the café industry and possible experience in the restaurant industry will certainly be beneficial. Most importantly, however, is your desire to bring small happy moments to people's days through treats and good service. Arnolds is Finland's first American-style bakery-café chain, which began operations in 1991. Arnolds has gained appreciation for its long-term work and was awarded the Franchising Chain of the Year award in 1999 and 2011. Arnolds cafés are located in the bustle of shopping centers in central locations, and each Arnolds is steered by an independent entrepreneur.
