Planning a Hard Rock Cafe in Germany

  • Opening a Hard Rock Cafe is not easy. Since it is a franchise principle, you need the consent of the company to open it. To do this, you need to find a suitable big city that does not yet have a Hard Rock Cafe. Cities with fewer than 400,000 inhabitants have no chance. You also have to find a building that is big enough and as central as possible.
  • Draw up a funding plan. This should be aimed at at least 5 years and must be very detailed. Do not be frightened by the high sum, but you need more than 1 million euros in start-up capital to realize this project. Contact a bank or savings bank and ask about business loans that have a lower interest rate.
  • If you have overcome all of these hurdles, there are other things to consider: Who is delivering the goods? What insurance do you need for the restaurant and the employees? Which applications do I have to submit to which authority? Think about it and talk to the parent company Hard Rock Cafe, which will help you set up in Germany. Take early Contact on!

Start your project

  • As soon as you have mastered all the challenges, the implementation begins. Equip your Hard Rock Cafe according to the specifications of the group. From this point on you are bound by many rules, but you also receive a lot of support from the company at the same time.
  • You need to have job interviews with your future employees. This includes cooks, wait staff and counter staff. Also, think about payroll and business management. The cleaning staff is usually provided on behalf of other companies.
