A pound of frozen fries costs $1.20–$2.00 wholesale.
That pound makes 3–4 portions.
Each portion sells for $4–$8 depending on the business.
Typical margin: 70–85%
Very few menu items come close.
2. Fast, consistent, and low‑skill to produce
Anyone can cook fries with zero training.
They cook in 3–4 minutes.
Portioning is simple and consistent.
No chef required, no complicated prep.
This makes fries perfect for high‑volume operations.
3. They pair with almost everything
Fries increase the average ticket because they can be added to:
burgers
wraps
fried chicken
sandwiches
fish & chips
poutines
combos
They’re the easiest upsell in foodservice.

Frozen fries last months.
Waste is almost zero.
