The real risk isn't starting a business. It's starting one alone.

Food cart franchise vs. starting from zero

Same Dream. Two Very Different Starts.

Starting from zero, alone

  • Test recipes with your own money
  • Build your own cart and hope it works
  • Guess suppliers, prices and quantities
  • Train crew with no manual
  • A brand nobody knows yet

Starting with Cylene's

  • A recipe tested across 50+ branches
  • A premium metal cart, ready to sell
  • Ingredients through our purchase-order system
  • 8 hours of hands-on owner and crew training
  • A brand customers already line up for

Takoyaki franchise FAQ

Straight Answers.

Money and risk

How much is the franchise?

The package price, payment terms and the full value of every item are shown on your free 30-minute Business Opportunity Call, side by side.

Is there a royalty?

Yes, a royalty on gross sales. It funds ongoing support, brand marketing and system upkeep. We go over the current rate with you on your free call.

How much will I earn?

No honest franchisor can promise income. Sales depend on your location, hours and how you run it. See the Caloocan Branch and Quezon City Branch results above, and we'll walk through the numbers for your spot on the call.

How fast can I get my investment back?

In our two case studies, payback per Cylene's Takawyaki was around 3 to 4 months. Results vary by branch; this is not a guarantee.

Do I pay anything on the call?

No. The call is free, with no obligation and no payment.

Is the reservation refundable?

No, the reservation is non-refundable. If your spot isn't approved, you keep looking until one is.

How much working capital should I prepare besides the package?

It depends on what your location needs to be ready. We plan it with you on your free Business Opportunity Call.

The package

What's included?

7 packages: metal cart with lights, kitchen tools and equipment, containers, starter ingredients, digital marketing, Cylene's App for 2 years and owner and crew training, plus extras like a 500-meter territory.

What's not included?

Rent, crew salary, cart delivery, barangay and business permits and taxes, a refrigerator, power and water lines, and store renovation and paint if needed.

What's on the menu?

7 Takaw flavors (Octobits, Crab Meat, Ham & Cheese, Pork, Hotdog, Bacon, Beef) in 6 sizes, from Solo (4 pcs) to Barangay (50 pcs).

What is Cylene's App?

Our POS app for 2 years: sales, inventory, crew time-in, payroll and purchase orders, right on your phone.

Do I buy supplies from you?

Yes. Supplies are purchased from Main, our main office, through our purchase-order system, so every branch tastes the same.

Is cart delivery included?

Cart delivery is separate from the franchise package because its cost depends on the distance to your location. Keeping it separate keeps the package the same for everyone. We go over it with you on your free call.

How much do supplies cost?

We walk you through this on your free Business Opportunity Call.

Do you have a Mall Kiosk or Rolling Takoyaki?

Both are coming soon. Today we franchise the metal cart.

Location

Do I need my own spot?

Yes. You find the spot; we review and approve it before you set up.

What if my location isn't approved?

Keep looking. We'll review each spot until one is approved. The reservation is non-refundable.

Do I get a territory?

Yes. Every franchise gets a 500-meter territory.

Can I open outside Metro Manila?

Yes. We already have branches in Rizal and Caticlan.

How big a space do I need?

At least 5 x 5 feet for the cart, plus room for customers to line up.

Running it

I have no business experience. Is that OK?

Yes. Many of our owners are first-timers. You and your crew get 8 hours of hands-on training, a manual and monthly meetings for 3 months.

How many crew do I need?

One crew can run a cart, and we recommend at least one full-time crew. You hire; we train.

I have a job. Can I still own one?

Yes. We recommend at least one full-time crew. The app shows your sales and crew time-in even when you're away.

What support do I get after opening?

An operations manual, opening promo help and a 1-hour monthly meeting for your first 3 months.

Process and trust

How long before I can open?

About 3 weeks of preparation after your location is approved, then your grand opening.

What happens on the free call?

30 minutes online with our team, Mon to Fri, 10am to 5pm PH time. We show the full offer and the price, and answer every question.

Can my partner or family join the call?

Yes, please bring them. It's easier to decide together.

Is Cylene's Takawyaki legit?

Yes. Cylene's Takawyaki is a registered corporation. You can visit any of our 50+ branches.

Can I talk to an existing franchisee?

Watch Jake's and Jazz's stories above, and visit a branch near you to see it running.
