Partner Path

Path to Local Partnership

Launch a Country HQ in your home country and grow Selfie stores there — that is what it means to be a Life Breeze local partner. Our partners lead the stores; our Japan HQ supports them with equipment and systems.

  1. STEP 1

    Start with a conversation

    Once you contact us, we will talk online. Tell us about your goals, your city and the kind of store you want to build.

  2. STEP 2

    Learn the stores and the system

    Through HQ training and hands-on time at our running stores, you will learn how the stores and our systems work. Right now, interns at our HQ in Shiojiri are learning with the goal of launching in their home countries.

  3. STEP 3

    Open your first store with HQ support

    Life Breeze HQ supports equipment procurement and store setup. Your first store is where you build an operating model that fits your country. In some countries, we start with a pilot.

  4. STEP 4

    Grow as the Country HQ

    Once the model works, you will grow stores across your country as the Country HQ and welcome franchise store owners. Our partners in Mozambique, Kenya and Liberia are on this path today.
