Overview
In the beginning My Girlfriend's Kitchen was just that: two girlfriends in one of their kitchens inviting all the Girlfriends in town to come over and enjoy the convenience of making meals together and have some fun at the same time. That was back in 2003. Today, My Girlfriend's Kitchen is a phenomenon: more than 60 stores in 21 states! The Girlfriend's stores owners and employees across America number in the hundreds, and the Girlfriends customers number in the tens of thousands. What else would you expect from "Today's Solution to the Age-Old Dinner Challenge" and "the Best Idea Since the Invention of the Wife." Today, as always, you can count on The Girlfriends for help. After all...Homemade dinner is...My Girlfriend's Kitchen.
We provide a turnkey operation for motivated Owner/Operators wishing to be part of this exciting new concept. At My Girlfriend’s Kitchen, the work environment is fun and rewarding. Our franchisees are part of a revolution changing the way America thinks about dinner.

Why My Girlfriend's Kitchen?
- Some predict 3,000 to 5,000 total stores across America in the next decade. No time like the present to get started with yours!
- From accounting to technology to customer service to how to slice a pepper, we do everything “best in class” and we’ll help you operate that way, too. After all, what are Girlfriends for?
- We nurture our Brand. We market it aggressively and protect it fiercely. My Girlfriend’s Kitchen is distinct and unique and lasting. We’ve got legs, Baby!
- We’re not growing just to grow. We’re growing to gain. We want everyone who joins us to win—today and tomorrow. It’s great to be an overnight sensation, but we’re serious business people here for the long-haul.
- Our goal is provide a changing monthly menu of creative, healthy, delicious dinners. We dream, scheme, test and retest in the relentless process to achieve this goal, day after day, dinner after dinner.
- We are allied with our customers in a cause. We support and sympathize with them. Dinner is a big deal in people’s hearts and minds, and we’re at the ready to help. The Girlfriend “Experience” makes taking care of the business of dinner fun and easy.
- It’s all about our franchisees. We’re not just selling you a franchise; we’re entering into a business partnership with you. You must succeed for us to succeed. Our focus is working with you to take your bottom line to the TOP.
- We offer 9 days of training at our Corporate Store in Salt Lake City for both you and your assistant manager. We offer up to five days of on-site support for your store opening and staff training. Our operations manual is prodigious and growing every month! Who needs a culinary background with support like this?
- We’re committed to the success of our entire franchise system, and we have the finances to do it.
- Everybody gets a territory of about 50,000 people, which is a great base to build your business on. We won’t crowd you as we add stores, because “You’re the Bomb” (see #7) and your success is our success.
- Our web site has expansive capabilities, including order data, customer tracking, inventory calculations, online access to food ordering and more. We will continue to invest heavily in technology so that our franchisees can do as much business as possible, with as much ease as possible.
- Our team is incredible. Come to headquarters in Salt Lake City for “Spotlight Day” and see for yourself.
- When you buy a franchise, you’re joining a group of franchisee peers who are working together day after day—each in their own stores—to build a national Girlfriend empire.
- But don’t be too bossy, because that’s not the Girlfriend way. If you’ve never been your own boss before, you don’t know what a joyful challenge it can be to set your own agenda and make your own destiny. We can’t wait to see the smile on your face when it all comes together for you!
- In the world of franchising, “the System” is your greatest asset. Without it, uniformity of the Brand (and value of the Brand) are lost. Through consistent use of and improvement to “the System,” My Girlfriend’s Kitchen is becoming a powerhouse.
