Street Corner Urban Markets are upscale stores that offer their communities a wide range of beverages, snacks, assorted groceries, and other everyday essentials. In addition to these amenities, Urban Market stores can elect to include our chef-curated fresh food service, featuring a mouthwatering menu of delicious pizzas, wraps and salads. The pizzas and wraps are uniquely prepared on savory naan, a traditional Indian flatbread. Our fresh food service takes Street Corner a mile above the competition when compared to other convenience store franchises, creating significant upward revenue potential.
New Street Corner franchisees can anticipate full support during the onboarding process. Our veteran team assists with lease negotiation along with all other aspects, including sophisticated store design, inventory guidance, staff training, and more. Our operations executives either currently are or have been store owners themselves, so they are familiar with all the details of owning and operating a franchise, instilling confidence throughout the transition.
