• Hear from a franchise owner

  Elnety Fernandes, Neds Noodle Bar Franchise owner
  
  Before owning his own Neds Noodle Bar store, Elnety Fernandes, managed a bakery franchise.
  
  When he heard that Neds Noodle Bar was launching their franchise model in 2019 and hearing about the legendary London noodle bar from his time in London, it gave him the ideal opportunity to join a great brand at the beginning of its expansion.
  
  Elnety said: “Franchising has always been an attractive proposition as I really enjoy working for myself but within a tried and tested business model. I love the food. I’m a big noodles fan because it’s healthier. I did a lot of research and was attracted to Neds Noodle Bar because it’s a strong brand, plus I’ve seen how much money there is to be made."
  
  Elnety Fernandes left his home in London and relocated to begin running the Southampton store, which is the fifth in the Neds Noodle Bar portfolio. The local launch was a big success with the store taking thousands of pounds each day. The launch of the fifth store created massive interest in the brand with local and national franchise coverage. See images below and coverage.
