TacoTime’s Can Be A Good Fit For First-Time Franchise Owners

60+ years of customer loyalty and brand growth provide a platform to help first-time franchise owners

Even the most confident entrepreneur is nervous about opening a new business. That’s understandable, and even smart. It’s why many become first-time franchise owners in order to take advantage of established operational systems and other support. All that is made even better when the brand in question has over a half-century of experience, as is the case with a TacoTime™ Mexican food franchise.

“TacoTime has decades of operations to point to. This is not a new brand trying to wedge itself into the crowded Mexican fast-food franchise space,” says Ray Zandi, Vice President of Franchise Development. “Over the years, TacoTime has grown in Canada, western Washington, Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana. That platform is fueling growth in other states around the country.”

Quality ingredients foundational to growth

TacoTime’s longevity as other Mexican food franchises have come and gone is due to the food. It’s really just that simple. Diners want the ease and convenience of a fast-casual restaurant, especially the taco franchise space. What they don’t want is the idea that the quality is subpar next to a sit-down restaurant.

“Everything on the menu is made fresh every day — always has been, always will be. That’s fundamental to what TacoTime is,” Zandi says. “Then that food is prepared by a team devoted to providing a rich consumer experience, and sold at a competitive, reasonable price. Consumers appreciate that mix of quality and value, all served with a positive attitude, instead of just tossed on a tray and pushed across the counter.”

Kahala Brands is a significant differentiator

Every TacoTime franchise owner also gets an enormous leg up from the outset, thanks to the training and support provided by Kahala Brands™. From site selection through initial training on back-office systems for inventory and scheduling, TacoTime franchise owners are ready for those crucial first weeks and months. Then they tap into marketing and other ongoing support to keep the momentum going.

“Kahala has demonstrated that, as a company, it knows how to grow a wide variety of brands,” Zandi says. “No two markets are the same, and so there’s no cookie-cutter approach taken. The ability to evaluate a marketplace and help a franchise owner start as strongly as possible is just one way the Kahala partnership makes a difference.”

TacoTime is ready for the spotlight. With locations across 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.
