Become a Wolfy's Bar franchise owner.

The Brand

Wolfy’s Bar was founded in 2023 by Wolf and Marike Dette and has grown around a simple idea: create a hospitality venue where coffee, food, drinks, culture and community all belong under one roof. Rooted in South African heritage and family values, the brand has developed a strong Wolfpack community and loyalty ecosystem. Wolfy’s is now entering its South African franchise expansion phase, with ambitions to build distinctive local hubs in key cities while maintaining a consistent, community-led brand experience.

Concept

Wolfy’s combines premium coffee and daytime café trade, casual dining, evening bar operations and curated events in one scalable day-to-night model. Revenue is generated across coffee and beverages, food, bar sales, event-led trading and loyalty-driven repeat visitation. The concept is designed for vibrant, accessible locations with strong local catchments and an active social market. Franchisees lead a hospitality team and use the Wolfpack loyalty, membership and ambassador ecosystem to build customer frequency, community participation and long-term retention.

Support

Franchisees receive end-to-end launch and operating support, including site selection and location guidance, design and build specifications, pre-opening planning, staff training and onboarding, operational systems and brand standards, founder-led mentorship, event programming guidance, and access to the Wolfpack ecosystem and ambassador network. Ongoing operational, local marketing, community activation and growth support is provided to help each venue launch consistently, maintain service standards and grow strategically in its local market.

Are You Our Next Franchisee?

Wolfy’s is looking for hands-on, hospitality-led entrepreneurs who are personable, community-oriented, organised, resilient and adaptable. Hospitality, restaurant, retail or other customer-facing management experience is preferred, together with strong leadership and commercial awareness. No specific formal qualification is stated. The franchisee should be comfortable leading staff, maintaining service standards, managing stock and events, driving customer engagement and building local relationships. Owner-operators and capable multi-unit developers who want to be actively involved in the brand are the strongest fit.
