International Application Process
Step 1: Online Pre-Qualifier

After completing the RFC and submitting it to Mr. Pretzels®, the next step is to discuss your plans and the information from your completed RFC with one of our Regional Franchise Sales Directors. They will contact you shortly after receiving and reviewing your RFC.
Step 3: Franchise Due Diligence
If, during the first face-to-face meeting or telephone conference with one of our sales directors, you are interested in continuing the process towards owning a Mr. Pretzels® Franchise, you will be provided with set-up costs and any information you might need that will help you complete your Business Plan.
Step 4: Franchise Committee Review
The Franchise Sales Director for your area will collect your application and put together the complete "review package" for the Mr. Pretzels® Franchise Committee. The Mr. Pretzels® Franchise Review Committee meets every fifteen (15) days to review franchise applications.
