Why Graze Craze Catering Franchise Opportunity
Corporate clients, wedding planners, and event hosts across Australia are choosing grazing boards and charcuterie tables. Industry analysts call this one of the most sought-after catering trends. Why? Grazing boards look great, fit different dietary needs, and create memorable social experiences.
Graze Craze specialises in handcrafted grazing boxes, boards, and tables. We cater corporate events, weddings, birthdays, baby showers, and private celebrations. Unlike traditional catering operations, our charcuterie board business model is simple:
- No commercial kitchen required – Prep kitchens and assembly spaces only
- Low overhead – No grease traps, minimal equipment, simple operations
- Faster launch – Get operational in weeks, not months
- Easy to scale – Start with one location, expand to multiple territories
We’re backed by United Franchise Group (UFG). Every Australian franchisee gets proven systems, complete training, and ongoing support. Australia’s franchise sector generates $200 billion annually and employs over 500,000 people. Now is the right time to enter this market with an established brand.
