Why noodles and vending?

When considering a new business franchise, aspects such as the growth potential of the market sector should have a strong influence of the final decision, as it would with any new business

The Kevin Chin franchise is in two major UK sectorys.

Noodles

The instant snack market grew from zero in 1979 to £115m in 2002. It is still growing at the fantastic rate (for a staple product such as food) of 9% per annum. This makes it a very attractive and profitable market to operate in.


Vending

The vending machine business is one of the fastest growing businesses of any sector, making it very profitable and highly beneficial market.
