Lody Bonano

Lody Bonano is a large Polish franchised soft-serve ice-cream network, built around its signature swirled świderki cones plus other frozen desserts and drinks. What sets the concept apart is the low barrier to entry and the franchisor's turnkey approach: instead of selling you a heavy build-out, it equips you with proven machines, ready recipes and a recognizable family-friendly brand. The brand runs in two formats — a brick-and-mortar shop, often with a seating area, or a mobile trailer custom-built for the concept.

In the franchise model the franchisor (operating under the Multi Ice Group umbrella) supplies the ice-cream machines and ingredient supply, ongoing technical service, help selecting and securing a location, assistance arranging financing and leasing, staff training in production and selling technique, full menu and marketing materials, and a dedicated account manager who supports you throughout. You contribute a relatively small own-capital stake, run the unit day to day, hire and schedule staff, do local marketing, and look after customers.
