Quality Ingredients Set TacoTime Franchises Apart

Consumers Want High Quality Food They Can Depend On, and TacoTime Franchise Owners and Their Teams Make Sure That Happens With Every Visit

Consumers like fast-casual dining because it’s quick and easy. They’re not willing to sacrifice on taste, quality and value, however — and at a TacoTime^® Mexican food franchise, that’s never an issue.

Since its founding more than 50 years ago, TacoTime has made great tasting, high-quality food the centerpiece of every business decision. The menu is ever changing, with new additions, refreshed versions of old favorites and seasonal offerings, each designed to be fresh, lively and unique.

R&D Team Supports Franchise Owners

“The corporate chef comes up with some great ideas, but we also hear a lot from the team of TacoTime Mexican food franchise owners,” says Kevin Gingrich, TacoTime President. “We get those ideas together and have what’s really a couple of days of serious binging in the test kitchen. We may try 30 different products out to see if any of them have the potential of making it onto the menu.”

The key at this stage is to see if the concept can be made quickly and effectively in the TacoTime franchise food prep area, and also to make sure that its ingredients can be easily sourced to maintain quality.

“If the brand can’t make it the best every time, we’re not going to pursue it,” Kevin explains. “Something may be a really neat taste combination, but if it’s too complicated to pull together, or if the ingredients are hard to get year-round, then it may not work for us — or it might work, but only as a seasonal special menu item.”
