2016 BizCover Grant Winner, Fudge N Good Coffee, is expanding into a franchise.

Fudge N Good Coffee is expanding to Sydney and to celebrate is giving BizCover supporters a gift (read to end to find out!)

When winning the BizGiver $2000 grant a year ago, Rini Puccetti owner of Tasmania Small Business Fudge N Good Chocolate said her next step was to Franchise.

“Having a new washer and dryer will increase our efficiency by saving time.  We are confident that we’ll be opening our first franchise store in the next year.”

Thanks to the grant and hard work from the team at Fudge N Good Coffee, this dream has come true with the company set to open a new store in Sydney.

“We are very excited to see our dreams and hard-work become a reality in 2017,” she says “we are looking forward to being able to offer the people of Sydney our excellent quality fudge and superb coffee.”

Rewind a year back and it was a different story.

While Business was booming for Fudge N Good Coffee, like a large number of Small Businesses, it was hard to find funds for larger expenses.

“I had been working around our lack of on-site washing facilities by taking the laundry home and using my family machine and dryer,” said Puccetti, “Having the laundry done on-site means less pressure on me after hours and allows me to focus my time on more important business procedures. Recently I have been on sick leave and I feel much better knowing that my staff can carry on the business, including the washing!”

That free time has allowed Rini and her team to focus on their franchising dreams and to celebrate their offering BizCover supporters a FREE piece of fudge with any online order that they make until the end of May 2017.
