What's Included In A Little Wickets Franchise?

Our Little Wickets franchise fee is tailored to reflect the size, potential and opportunity in your exclusive local territory.

This approach keeps things fair, flexible, and focused on your success – whether you’re launching in a small town or a wider region.

We’ll work with you to map out a realistic and exclusive territory based on your goals, commitments and ambitions. That way your investment will reflect your market’s size and your potential.

This is your business, but you’re never on your own.
