TacoTime Lets Savvy Entrepreneurs Offer A Bold New Experience

Fantastic food at a great price, in a venue that the community has never seen? Welcome to what TacoTime can do for your entrepreneurial dreams

Why open a TacoTime™ Mexican fast-food now? A better answer is, why not? 

If you’re an entrepreneur and you like the idea of getting into the supercharged Mexican food franchise space, then TacoTime is the brand to own. It’s more than 60 years old, with generations of loyal fans in its Pacific Northwest home base. The systems and support are there to supercharge a strong start and ensure longevity. And the food is at the core of it all.

High quality, reasonable price, consistent presentation

The TacoTime Mexican food franchise menu is a thing of beauty. Items that people have loved for years are there, along with unique new offerings that follow taste trends without being trendy. The result is a dining experience that provides the familiar along with something new for enthusiastic customers to try.

“There are a lot of players in the Mexican fast-food franchise space, and there’s also a lot of consistency,” says Ray Zandi, Vice President of Franchise Development. “People get turned off by food that’s sloppily presented or is rubbery from sitting under heat lamps. TacoTime is the polar opposite: fresh, made to order and delicious. It’s such a simple thing, but it’s why this brand has been a standout for so long.” 

Franchise owners have across-the-board input

Another thing that sets TacoTime apart in the fast-casual dining space? Owner engagement. From marketing and social media campaigns to new menu items and even packaging, TacoTime franchise owners have a seat at the table thanks to an engaged franchise advisory board.

“The customers are behind everything TacoTime does, and from the perspective of Kahala Brands™, so are the owners,” says Zandi. “Owner engagement has kept this brand fresh and growing for such a long time, and it’s a proven formula for success. The owners are out there every day, talking to customers and finding out what they’d like to see on the menu. From there, it’s off to test kitchens to see if it’s a workable idea. When it is, a menu trial gets going. You’re not going to see that in other fast-casual brands, where the menu is set in stone, or is only changed by executive decision vs. franchise owner input.” 

TacoTime is ready for the spotlight. With countless 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 authentic 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.
