The chosen ones
Ahsan Ali - Rochdale & Oldham Branch
"Was it a punt or was it a serious business decision? It was neither, but a life changing decision, having met Asif as a customer looking to order a cake for my nephews 5th birthday, we struck up a conversation whilst Asif was making a routine branch visit. This was all early on when Asif was still debating on whether to loosen the reigns and offer franchises.


"So
what would you say to sharing a piece the cake?" said Asif, "my nephew would strangle me!" was my response,
"no not that cake, the Nafees Bakers brand cake?". From that early
conversation and hypothetical statement, the next I knew I was signing a long team lease and planning a staff Rota for the month ahead...was it destiny or was it just luck? I'd say it was being right where I needed to be on that day". - Ahsan Ali


Mohammed Shahzad - Halifax Branch
"Third time lucky! Having previously established two profitable new-starts, I thought I was going to take time out and travel for a year. But sometimes thing's just don't map out the way we think. I was invited to Nafees Bakers AGM by a friend. As the speeches came to an end, networking started over a divine lamb steak meal. Mr. Saleem enquired about my business background and it just clicked, a man on the same page as me! Before the night was over, we had already identified a location, mapped out logistics and brainstormed a promotional strategy". - Mohammed Shahzad


Imtiaz Ahmed - Burnley Branch
"February 2014, having arrived back from Dubai on a 10 day holiday I was looking forward to returning to my local government position. Well all that is long gone, Nafees Bakers was not the type of business model | envisaged pursuing, although I always wanted to be self employed, but may be in an on line service or similar. After all the build up and sleepless nights through to the grand opening, I wouldn't give any of it away! Nafees Bakers and all its colleagues, from Tim who processes orders to Mr. Saleem at Nafees HQ, it's like being part of a family, but you get to have your own cake!". - Imtiaz Ahmed

Franchise Capital Requirements - "only aspect of Nafees Bakers that remains black and white till this day."
Although a Nafees franchise is competitively priced and the ongoing support and assistance from the management team is flexible under pretty much all circumstances, one thing Nafees Bakers has ingrained within its DNA is, ethical and untainted practices where any form of capital or currency is concerned.
The founding father of the Nafees Bakers empire arrived in the Britain with only £5 in his pocket in 1961 and his first acquisition in pursuit of his dream was the purchase of a mixing bowl for £3 in 1970. From these deeply humble and modest beginnings a multimillion pound empire was created.

A close friend was once quoted as saying, "walls are built on their foundation's", hence any capital introduced to Nafees Bakers as part of the franchise scheme is scrutinized to its very core... and that includes each and every penny. Loans sourced on interest repayments are a big 'no-no' also. One thing Mr. Saleem failed to mention is how he feels that every man is accountable for his earnings and that includes it's source. So if a potential franchisee is unable to prove the source of the income then it's a case of well wishes and parting ways...no hard feelings.
