ROBBO CLUB generates profit if you take it seriously
There are several business models with different approaches to minimize costs and with various formats of launching the ROBBO CLUB from scratch. They are suitable for the cities with the population of 20 000 people or more. Most importantly – ROBBO CLUB is a fully-fledged supplementary education, like school education, and therefore it is much more profitable than any club.
Well defined education plan
In other clubs kids are just hanging out, but we have a defined curriculum and educational goals. As a result, an study duration in a usual club is 2-3 months, but the average study duration in our club is 18 months and above.
Programs for different ages
The learning process is designed with great clarity and covers 5 different directions step by step. Moreover, it is also specific for different age groups. We have created a program for the first, second and third years of study for three age groups: 5-7 years old, 8-10 years old and 11-15 years old.
Educational events
We hold our own ROBBO festival and Scratch competition, and we also participate in International events in the IT sphere.

Interview with the ROBBO Club franchisee, Romania, Vlad Dumitrescu I launched my ROBBO Club on the first month of the pandemic. The support team helped to quickly rebuild the business in a new reality and to start making money! At the present time I have an offline club and the regularly attended classes.
Interview with the ROBBO Club franchisee, Georgia, Boris Lipatov I opened ROBBO Club online in Tbilisi. At the pandemic peak I had more than 150 students. The summer after restrictions were removed, I held a summer camp offline. Children enjoyed a lot that format!

A comprehensive approach is at the core of the franchise's success
We started as a club in Helsinki. In six months, we managed to get a stable income out of it and opened new venues. Step by step a whole network was created. We were able to do it because we have created our own system and included all processes in it: we analysed, digitized, defined standards and made them obligatory for every employee.
