    Neat Idea/Franchise

    Never seen one before, Forbes ranks it in its top 20 franchises. Edible Arrangements, fruit 'baskets' that look like flower arrangements.

    I moved my sites to Vacares Hosting. I've saved money, my hair is thicker, lost some weight too! Thanks Sly!

      Saw a $45,000 Mercedes delivery van with that logo on it last week. Couldn't stop laughing. How much fruit with a very short freshness time window when prepared, cut mellon, etc, would you have to deliver to break even? And who wants a half eaten turning brown bunch of fruit sitting around the house? Worse yet who's going to eat a bouquet of fresh fruit full of hospital germs if sent as a get well token?

      I think the real selling here is in the franchisor convincing franchisees this will somehow work. lol.

        It's only an good if you've got a crowd of vultures that are going to gobble it all before it goes brown.

            Convincing suckers to spend $80+ on about $10 worth of fruit is genius.

            They've gotten my money more than once.

            They've got at least 5 locations in my mid-sized city.

            Spend you some brain.

                      You mean where a bunch of people get together and do yard work? Strange ...

                      Seems like one of those businesses where the effort isn't worth the return.

                        It probably will not go brown.

                        Look what they have used.

                        There are only a few things cut up, such as pinaple, and that lasts ages cut.

                        The rest is uncut, as they are mainly berries.

                          The price of the fruit is the least of what you're paying for, so much so it's probably barely accounted for in their pricing.

                            i don't suggest that. any cleaning contracts are good but look it over carefully janiking,Vanguard Cleaning Systems,jan-pro

                            if you dont have 5 grand plus you can find cleaning sub contracts

                            im telling you its a great place to be. im not sharing more than that

                              There is one of those over by the Beverly Center in Los Angeles. The arrangements are not priced particularly differently from floral ones and they are a fun change of pace for situations where a floral arrangement would be appropriate.

                                      Of course. But the concept at its core is pretty much what I said.

                                      Spend you some brain.
