Australian Franchise Fee Index · Q2 2026 editionMethodologySupportContact

Franchises under $150,000 in Australia

57 systems with a total all-in investment under $150,000. The figure below is the all-in establishment cost including working capital — not the initial fee alone.

Budget for working capital. A low headline entry cost still needs cash to cover wages, stock and rent before the site is cash-flow positive. Always confirm the all-in figure, not just the franchise fee.
