A food franchise has announced an equipment rebate to match the Federal GovernmentÕs equipment tax break for small businesses, the second financial initiative for the brand this year. Buy a Go Sushi franchise store before December 30th and Pacific Retail Management will refund 50 percent of your equipment costs up to $35,000 to fit out your new store.

This latest initiative is applicable to new franchisees who sign their franchise agreements and pay initial opening costs before the end of the year.

Chris Jordinson, director, said “With the financial crunch still weighing heavily on our minds and affecting potential business ownersÕ ability to raise finance, this initiative helps new business owners start their dream of owning and running their own Go Sushi business.

“The combination of the 50 percent tax break and the equipment cash back will lessen the burden on what is deemed to be expensive equipment finance for new franchisees,” he added.

Earlier this year new Go Sushi franchisees were offered a $50,000 saving on their purchase with the waiving of the franchise fee.

Go Sushi has recently opened outlets in Broome and Surfers Paradise, and there are new business partners for the brand in France.
