How Mexican Food Franchise, TacoTime, Separates Itself From The Competition

A legacy of high-quality food and intense customer loyalty can give franchise owners the ability to start strong and grow quickly in any market

When a potential TacoTime® Mexican food franchise owner meets the TacoTime executive team, they are shaking hands (or bumping fists rather) with individuals who not only believe in the brand but are submersed in it as ambassadors and often franchise owners. That’s one of the many ways that Mexican food franchise, TacoTime, stands out in the fast-casual Mexican food market it has dominated for more than a half century.

“Our franchise owners and executive leadership alike are engaged in every aspect of the brand, and that’s why it’s no surprise to me that we continue to grow around the country, even in today’s challenging climate,” says John Wuycheck, Senior Vice President of Operations for TacoTime.

Attention to the basics has fueled steady growth

There are many TacoTime Mexican food franchise owners with a long history of engagement. Since its start in the early 1960s, TacoTime has expanded over several Western states from it’s home territory of the Pacific Northwest. It routinely beats out our competitors in markets because of its singular focus on two things: great food and operational excellence.

“If a brand is cutting corners with food, it’s going to lose market share,” Wuycheck says. “People know when they’re being served second best. At the same time, if the back-office and other systems are complicated and cumbersome, franchise owners and their teams are spending too much time on process, and not enough on customer service. TacoTime solves both issues by providing best-in-class everything to franchise owners and their customers.”

Kahala Brands enhances ownership experience

TacoTime franchise owners also greatly benefit from the training and support they receive from corporate parent, Kahala Brands™. As our franchisees put it, “from the very first day, a TacoTime franchise owner has literally everything they need at their fingertips, or just a phone call or email away.”

It all adds up to a brand that continues to separate itself from the many other players in the popular, and growing, Mexican food franchise space.

TacoTime is ready for the spotlight. With numerous locations in the United States and Canada, the successful Mexican food franchise is ready to break out of its home turf in the Pacific Northwest and hit the national stage. TacoTime is looking for entrepreneurs who are passionate about bringing homestyle and affordable Mexican food to their communities. TacoTime is led by a veteran franchise team and dedicated brand support team as part of the Kahala Brands™ family.
