Extrawurst - The unique snack franchise concept with that certain ‘extra’
The German snack bar with its popular currywurst is a savoury cultural asset in Germany and impresses with its trendy and timeless success. If you are interested in achieving personal and professional success through a family-run business that has been dedicated to the craft of the German premium snack bar since 1981, you have come to the right place.

Our corporate culture enables our franchisees to achieve a predominantly crisis-proof currywurst franchise opportunity with the freedom of a flexible lifestyle.

Honest tastes best!
A sausage at a snack bar is an honest thing. Where the smell of grease wafts through the room, there's no need to pretend. Whether banker, student or tradesman - everyone is the same here.
And everyone is united by the desire for a really tasty sausage. Extrawurst is particularly committed to this snack tradition. The aim of the system centre is not to make a quick buck at any price, but to make the tastiest sausage possible - and has been since 1981!
Extrawurst is not a ‘gourmet stall’. You won't find frippery such as gold leaf, salad or fantasy names for dishes on the menu. Instead, we concentrate on good craftsmanship. In other words, the best and controlled meat quality, natural spices and special recipes that make for good flavour. And a manageable selection of ‘honest’ down-to-earth dishes.
Everything is served in a relaxed, informal and direct manner - just as honest as our dishes. The latter are not a closed book, but transparent in terms of ingredients and possible intolerances. In short: we love sausage and cannot lie. And customers experience exactly what they expect: an honest, delicious sausage. That's why the Extrawurst claim is: honest. delicious.
