Prague, October 16, 2024 – Venture Club invested in the franchise concept of the Trdlokafe group, which includes successful fast-food chains such as Bubblify, Rio, or Pizza Rocket. This project offered investors an attractive dividend yield of up to 30% with regular quarterly payouts.
The total investment of 40 million crowns will be directed towards purchasing franchise branches in high-traffic locations not only in Prague but also in world metropolises. Trdlokafe provides a franchise business model for investors, which now includes Venture Club. The group finds a suitable location, sets up the operation, and starts the business. The investor then has the option to use the group’s services or hand over the operation to the franchise owner. Monthly billing includes a 5% franchise fee and 1% of the material volume, with profits transferred to the investor’s SPV.
“As a franchisee, we selected branches and gradually cover the investment while the Trdlokafe group implements the operation and will actually continue to operate it for us. Venture Club plans quarterly billing for investors and the expected return on investment is within three years. With a joint purchase, we achieved economies of scale – a discount on purchasing more branches – and increased safety for all participants through better diversification among several brands and locations. All this with individually smaller investments by individual investors. Investing together pays off,” comments Petr Šedivý, CEO of Venture Club Invest s.r.o. and chairman of the committee of Venture Club z.s.
Thus, Venture Club offered its members the opportunity to participate in the growth of this rapidly expanding Czech retail group. Trdlokafe has so far launched 230 branches, with, for example, just the Bubblify chain opening more than forty branches in less than two years since its inception. The investment was allocated among members within ten days. Investors divided the newly established SPV in proportion to their contributions and will participate in the investment yield. The club was responsible for finding the investment, subsequent negotiations, and securing the conditions. In the future, it will also handle all legal and administrative matters related to its operation.
