Voodoo Brewing Co

Since, 2005, Voodoo Brewing Co. has been focused on crafting the best damn beers you have ever tasted! We pride ourselves on shattering industry standards and innovating the craft brewing segment. Our beers are fun, flavorful, and thought-provoking with brews such as the Voodoo Love Child (a Belgian tripel aged with passion fruit, cherries, and raspberries), White Magick of the Sun (a white ale, spiced with coriander, bitters, sweet orange peel, juniper berries, and 12 varieties of peppercorns), and Black Magick (an imperial stout with a robust black market following) there is nothing normal about our offerings or our culture. Not only are our beers unique, but we serve them all along with eclectic pub food in an unconventional atmosphere that respects those in flip-flops over suits.




Our corporate team is compromised of some badass individuals who have a serious passion and love for the industry and aim to "Voodooize" pop culture, music, and art while bringing our breweries to modern, post-industrial communities. We have created a culture that embraces diversity, values inclusion and encourages everyone to be themselves. There is creativity in everything we do and we pride ourselves on being a fun and goofy brand that invites everyone to feel comfortable inside our locations.


When it comes to our franchise model, we couldn’t have made it more simple if we tried. We know that not all Franchise Owners are going to have experience in brewing beer, and to be honest, no one can brew like us. That’s why our Brew Master and “mad scientist,” Curt, is behind the scenes crafting all the beer for our Owners. Also, our locations mimic a European beer hall meaning customers order and pick up at a counter, therefore eliminating the need for traditional servers and minimizing employee requirements. When you mix these two aspects together and add in support from our experienced brew team, it all adds up to a fun, fulfilling, and profitable business for our Owners.


WHY Voodoo Brewery?

  • A Brewery Without Brewing: Let’s face it, no one can brew beer like us... But that’s ok! We don’t ask our Franchise Owners to brew anything at their locations. All beers are crafted by the Voodoo Brew Master at our central production facility and shipped directly to the doorstep of our franchised locations.

  • Different is Cool: At Voodoo, we strive to break the mold and embrace the non-traditional. So, while there are guidelines Franchise Owners must follow, we do encourage individuality. We encourage Owners to be creative in the decor of their space and their menu and incorporate local products whenever possible.

  • Fewer Headaches: Just like a European beer hall, at Voodoo customers order and pick up food and drinks at a counter. This model allows Owners to run a brewery with a lean staff of around six employees. As we all know, the fewer employees, the fewer headaches- and the increased ability for our Owners to maximize their ROI.



Waters Edge Wineries Franchise

We are a micro-winery franchise. We outsource all of the agriculture part of the winery business and simply import the "grape-must" or crushed grapes from vineyards worldwide. We operate a large production facility at our HQ to supply our start-ups with finished wine, but over the first year of operation, they become an independent producer of wine.

Our wineries are located in urban, populated areas in retail space - we bring the winery to the people!

The difference between a Waters Edge Winery & Bistro and a traditional winery is that we do not grow or crush the grapes – we outsource those functions to a global network of vineyards and growers. This lowers the cost of ownership, and removes the biggest risk associated with most wineries.

Actual wine production is done onsite. A Waters Edge Winery & Bistro® makes several wines that are exclusive to our winery locations. We make many of the popular varietals, including Merlots, Cabs and Chardonnays. We also make some harder-to-find wines such as Barolos, Gewurztraminers, Pinotages, Petit Verdot and Ports. We source grapes globally that will allow you to make over 50 different kinds of wine using grapes from the best grape growing regions in the world. Places such as California, Italy, France, New Zealand, Chile and Germany.

We also offer a lineup of wines that are found nowhere else and add to the spectrum of tastes for our guests. These include fun wines such as our popular Peach Apricot Chardonnay and Cranberry Malbec. These wines are easy for nearly everyone to enjoy – low in alcohol and slightly off-dry.

In addition to wine sales by the bottle and glass, a Waters Edge Winery® also offers the following:

  • Bistro-style appetizers and desserts

  • Custom labeling

  • Wine Club

  • Private Parties and Events

  • Wholesale Sales


Why the winery industry?

  • Wine consumption has grown every year for over a decade and the consumer craves the winery experience in all geographical areas.

  • Our model is a new twist on one of the oldest products known to man. We make high quality wines without the hassle of owning vineyards.

  • We can put one of our wineries anywhere - find a retail space with 2,500-4,000 SF and we can place a winery there!


Why Waters Edge Wineries?

  • We are the only one with our model in the United States

  • The gross profit margins on the wine produced by our franchisees are above 80%

  • We give our owners the winery lifestyle without having to be multi-millionaires

  • Is owning a franchise restaurant profitable?
