Check Out Our Innovative Franchise Opportunity
Artfully arranged and aesthetically pleasing, charcuterie boards are a food trend with staying power. Thanks to the ability to delight palates of any age or dietary discipline, a franchise opportunity with Graze Craze is a great way to capitalize on this growing trend while going into business for yourself.
Charcuterie is enjoying a foodie renaissance at the moment, but the culinary craft has existed since the 15th century. Since that time, the concept has evolved far beyond cheese and crackers as the current revolution coincides with the artisanal food movement. Offering a variety of cheeses, meats, vegetables, fruits, nuts, olives, spreads, and crackers, charcuterie boards truly have something for everyone.
Part of the reason for charcuterie’s resurgence is social media. The do-it-yourself nature allows anyone like yourself to become a food artist and enjoy the fruits of your labor. In fact, there are actual “charcuterie influencers.” Charcuterie boards have flourished as a social media phenomenon:
- On Instagram, searching for the term “charcuterie” yields nearly one million results
- On Facebook, there are hundreds of dedicated groups
- On TikTok, users are reporting explosive rates of notifications and new followers
Graze Craze can help you bring high-quality, convenient charcuterie boards with white-glove level concierge services to your community and build a strong customer base.
The charcuterie industry is booming: Sales of charcuterie and packaged meats rose to $378M after seeing a compound annual growth rate of 6.5%. Now is the time to start a charcuterie business, and there’s no better partner than Graze Craze!

Visually appealing, charcuterie boards are a great addition to both special occasions and everyday activities. Our hand-crafted personal and picnic boxes, platters, and grazing tables can be created for any size gathering, whether a small group or large crowd. Charcuterie is perfect for spicing up everyday lunches, making an impression at social events, or serving large groups at business meetings or wedding receptions.
Customers love that they can place customized orders online and in-store, and take advantage of in-house delivery options. Our dedicated customer base includes families looking to spice up special occasions, couples who fancy a romantic picnic, businesses that want to show their appreciation to employees and clients, church and community groups in need of catering, and people with special dietary restrictions, to name a few.
We source the highest quality ingredients in each category, and our attention to detail is what sets us apart. Our fresh and wholesome ingredients include cured meats, fresh-baked artisan bread, and cheeses, which we combine with farm-fresh produce and our house-made sauces, dips, and jams.
The different, innovative flavors we create mean there are a variety of grazing possibilities to suit everyone’s taste buds on a charcuterie board. While we supply a menu of signature grazing platters, our platters are completely customizable. We give our customers the flexibility to cater their grazing platters to their individual needs, personal palates, and dietary specifications.
As the proverbial cherry on top, Graze Craze is proud to utilize eco-friendly packaging. Our charcuterie boards come in biodegradable packaging, including palm leaf plates and utensils. Customers delight that our boxes and platters can be repurposed for gift wrapping, decoration, or serving.
Innovative Franchise Opportunity
Graze Craze is a unique, innovative franchise opportunity. Our franchising opportunity allows you to get your business started quickly and on the right track with a host of benefits that independent owners can only dream of.
We’re actually three businesses in one. Our franchise owners love that they can tap into multiple revenue streams while leveraging multiple dining trends. One part of the business is the charcuterie franchise opportunity, where you’ll provide fresh and wholesome grazing options for your community.
The second part of the business is a catering franchise opportunity, where you’ll work with a growing number of corporate and B2B clients. The third part is a food delivery franchise opportunity, where you’ll offer delivery options to customers instead of using a third-party service. Our customers love that they can trust us for fast, free delivery.
We’re part of United Franchise Group (UFG). UFG is a franchising powerhouse with nearly four decades of industry experience and numerous growing brands.
