There are so many franchise options you can consider. You can go for food franchises, milk tea and frappe franchise, french fries franchise, and even shawarma franchise. But if you want to go big and have millions of pesos on a budget, go for a gas station franchise.
We listed 3 gas stations available for franchising and dealership with their minimum initial investments. Franchising or being a dealer at a gas station can be a bit complicated because the requirements are more stringent, and most of the time, you have 2 options:
- Company Owned Dealer Operated (CODO) – The dealer’s (you) role is to operate the station and order products from the company. But the company still owns the station.
- Dealer Owned Dealer Operated (DODO) – This one is the more expensive one because you, as the dealer, will build, operate, and equip the station with products from the company.
Remember that this is just a guide, and you can directly reach out to the company for more updated details.
1. Shell
Minimum initial investment for CODO – average Php 5-8 Million
Minimum initial investment for DODO – average Php 10-12 Million
