At Chaffic, we're looking for energetic and passionate individuals who genuinely believe in our brand philosophy and love bubble tea. Ideal franchisees are enthusiastic leaders who build positive team cultures, have solid business skills, and embrace hands-on management. Experience in the F&B industry is beneficial and will help you learn faster, but our comprehensive training and support system can guide you even if you're starting from scratch. We value candidates who are resilient, determined, customer-focused, ready to work hard. You will also need to be eligible to work in Australia.

Absolutely! Owning a Chaffic franchise allows you the freedom and flexibility to control your schedule and maintain a balanced lifestyle. However, we strongly encourage franchisees to lead by example and be fully involved in the store's daily operations—particularly for the first six months. Our experience shows that the top-performing stores are those actively managed by their owners. Investing your time and effort upfront ensures you thoroughly understand all roles within your business, laying a strong foundation for long-term success.

Every franchise candidate’s application is unique, and the timeframe can vary due to several factors, including lease agreements and site availability. Typically, our franchise partners reach the final assessment stages within 6–8 weeks after applying. We'll move forward at a pace comfortable for you and remain fully transparent, keeping you updated throughout every step of your franchise application.
