TESTIMONIAL
What Our Franchisees Say
Real stories from real partners. Hear how Friendly Fire transformed their passion for gaming into a profitable, buzzing business.
I currently work at Coca-Cola as a Digital Enterprise Platform Lead for Finance and Legal. I chose to invest in a Friendly Fire franchise because of its modern concept and the massive potential of the gaming industry, even though I had no prior experience with video games.
On average, I dedicate around 5 hours a week to Friendly Fire. I acquired an already existing franchise, and it took me about two months to fully understand how the Friendly Fire system works.
