We provide a healthy alternative to ‘fast food’ without sacrificing taste or convenience for people on – the – go. We offer organic and all natural fresh ingredients, including locally grown produce when available. We choose to reduce impact on the environment by recycling and using earth friendly products.
d’Lite is a health conscious kitchen and coffee house offering the convenience of dine-in, drive-thru, pick-up, delivery and catering.
We boast a precise menu offering of made-to-order signature items that are currently not available to the consumer in a fast-casual format.
d’Lite caters to the increasing demand of all consumers, and includes alternatives such as gluten free, soy free, vegetarian, vegan, protein pack’d and balanced items. d’Lite is healthy yet hearty, tasteful, satisfying and highly nutritious.
CORPORATE INTEGRITY
d’Lite positively reinforces its team members to maintain excellence in all aspects of the brand. We are also in the market to enrich lives: the lives of our customers, our team members, our owners and franchisees. d’Lite is founded on the philosophy that everyone needs to benefit and profit, not just the franchisor. d’Lite is dedicated to providing the franchisee the tools needed to exceed expectations.
PROVEN SYSTEM
As a d’Lite franchisee, you take advantage of proven business methods and years of experience, knowledge and know-how. d’Lite offers systems and processes with use of technology, yet with affordable cost and easy administration, making the systems manageable and effective.
SUPPORT
There is a difference in doing business with d’Lite. We are passionate about providing a unique experience in the food and health industry. With that passion and commitment, we are a highly visible partner to our franchisees. We have established expert teams to support you in every aspect of your business – from site selection to grand opening as well as providing guidance in your operations.
TRAINING
Training is a strong part of our system. All franchisees go through seventeen days of complete in store operations training, with two days in a classroom setting. Franchisees also receive an additional seven days of on-site training once a store opens. We continually provide ongoing training and support for franchise partners and their team members.
OPPORTUNITIES
Our success in franchising will be based on targeted growth strategy and development expansion in the best locations and with the best partners.
d’Lite likes to equate the nature of a franchisor/franchisee relationship to that of a good committed partnership. Both parties need to engage in ongoing, transparent communication, commit to team work to reach established goals, provide superior support to one another when pursuing objectives, and consistently present a listening ear and willingness to collaborate and compromise, if needed.
We aim to partner with individuals who appreciate and can easily get on board with the operating spirit between the franchise community and corporate representatives. With collaboration, we will reach mutually beneficial business goals – a must for a thriving long-standing relationship. Equally as important is a commitment to uphold our d’Lite operation standards and established brand personality.
