"Celeste and I firmly believe in the brand and we are immensely excited about the opportunities that The Fish & Chip Co. have to offer. Both our stores will be opening on the 1st of December, while the store that we have just won, will open up in February next year to allow us time to focus on our newly established stores first," says Beetge.

"On behalf of The Fish & Chip Co, I would like to congratulate Francois and Celeste for winning this competition. Undoubtedly, they will make full use of this exciting opportunity, and create a thriving and sustainable franchise that will not only benefit their personal business ambitions, but add considerable long term value to our impressive and growing franchise."
The Beetges will now be legally obliged to run and administer the business for one year from the trading date, and not be allowed to sell the franchise outlet during that period.
Calitz concludes that the competition proved to be an outright success.
"Over 173 people entered the competition. This impressive number firmly indicates that there is considerable interest in The Fish & Chip Co, and that we offer a competitive and lucrative business model for emerging entrepreneurs."
