Need honest advice.
My friend offered me to join a bhature chole franchise business. First he said we’ll do 50-50 partnership. Later he changed it and said his uncle is also involved, so now it’ll be 30%-30%-30%.
Their side is doing the investment which is around 5 Lakhs. My role would be managing the whole shop daily:
\\- staff management
\\- customers
\\- stock
\\- operations
\\- opening/closing
\\- overall management
My concern is not just percentage. It’s trust and clarity.
I feel weird because the structure changed later. I don’t know if things were hidden initially or if planning is just unclear.
Also, if profits don’t come for months, then what? I’ll be working full-time with no guaranteed salary and only profit share.
What would you do in this situation?
\\- Is 30% fair if I’m managing everything but not investing money?
\\- Should I demand fixed salary + profit share?
\\- Are these early changes in partnership structure a red flag or am I overthinking?
Would appreciate practical advice from people who’ve actually done food/business partnerships.
