FranchiseNegosyo - Showcase Project

Buying a franchise in the Philippines usually starts with a pile of brochures, and each one presents its numbers in a different way, so a buyer struggles to tell which food cart, kiosk or full store actually fits their savings. The problem gets harder for OFWs, who often shop for a business back home from abroad and have to rely on whatever figures a brand chooses to send. FranchiseNegosyo is a free web app, built with Next.js and paired with a mobile app, that puts every brand on the same footing. Each brand page lists the franchise fee, total investment range, royalty and payback period in the same order, so two brands can be read side by side without decoding different formats. Visitors can browse Philippine franchises by budget, city, industry and format, from food carts under 100,000 pesos up to full stores. A few tools sit on top of the listings. The Negosyo Map shows where a brand and its competitors already trade, which helps a buyer judge whether a town has room for one more outlet, while SagotFN AI answers questions using only what is written on a brand's page. When someone would rather talk to a person, they can request a free franchise advisor from any brand page, and the franchise budget and payback planning tools help them work through the numbers before that conversation. The product is aimed at first-time franchisees in the Philippines and OFWs planning a business back home, people who want clear and comparable numbers before they commit their savings. It is free to use and is built by Romeo Jaducana as a solo founder, and the FranchiseNegosyo franchise directory homepage is the place to start.
