Designed Dinners is a dining concept that provides busy customers with gourmet meals at reasonable prices, saving today’s busy urbanite from the time-consuming chores of planning meals, visiting the grocery store to shop for ingredients, preparing foods and slaving over a hot stove. Designed Dinners offers Certified Chef-prepared meals, for restaurant-quality dining without the price tag or inconvenience of going out. Customers simply enter the Designed Dinners store or shop online to choose from among several fully prepared meals, then take them home and heat them up in the comfort of their own homes. With Designed Dinners, someone else does the hard work, while all customers have to do is enjoy.

Imagine having a business in which you only need to be physically present for two or three hours, three to four times a week, at times that are convenient to you and fit your personal preferences; where you never have collection issues because all your clients have paid in advance of receiving your product; and in which many of the administrative tasks, like scheduling clients and accepting payments are automatically processed through a full- service business web site. Imagine your own company that feels more like a social network, in which you have sessions with clients that are fun and satisfying, not like a business transaction. That describes a Designed Dinners franchise, and it’s the perfect opportunity for entrepreneurs who have a passion for great food and giving customers an experience that they will love every time. Designed Dinners is the perfect business for someone who requires flexibility of scheduling, and who likes to entertain and make people smile. Imagine when your customers arrive, you share a glass of wine with them, engage in some good conversation, and help them prepare delicious and nutritious gourmet meals. Many Designed Dinners franchise territories are available across the United States, as well as opportunities for Master Franchise Agreements.
