This is a seriously tasty franchise opportunity where you can get your teeth into something new with your own YO! street food & sushi kiosk franchise, under the Wonderfield (Ireland) umbrella.

We currently have one, soon to open, YO! street food & sushi kiosk available in:

Tesco DUNDALK - A91 PK74 - opening in 2026 - Franchise Fee € 45,000

This will be subject to change as the kiosks are sold and / or new kiosks are added

They are primarily looking for franchisees who will act as owner/operators themselves, as they believe that the energy and passion that comes from a direct personal investment in the brand really shines through to customers, but they are also open to potential multi-unit operators.

No previous experience in retail, or the food & beverage industry is needed, as the comprehensive training will teach you everything you need to know. It’s far more important that you are the right kind of person, rather than having the perfect CV. This is about more than just running a successful and profitable business, it’s about working together to build something you can both be proud of. Having some managerial experience, or a track record of leading a team would obviously be useful though.

If you are:

- Good at motivating yourself and others to maintain the high standards of the brand
- A great communicator who can build a strong rapport with your customers
- Willing to take a hands-on role in your new business
- Hard-working, dedicated, committed and willing to give it your all
- Willing to follow the tried and tested systems already in place
- Able to learn, and take on new skills, as well as constantly strive for bigger and better things
- Ready to be your own boss and hit the ground running from day one

Join us and ride the rising tide of sushi’s popularity, with kiosks in the most visible, high-traffic areas of one of Ireland’s largest retailers.
