Join the Twisted Taco Experience
Twisted Taco Franchise, Inc. is giving others the opportunity to share in a proven restaurant concept. We offer two opportunities: (1) a full-service Cantina model with an initial franchise fee of $40,000; and (2) a quick-service Express model with an initial franchise fee of $25,000.
Our Twisted Taco Cantinas feature a full bar with over 75 types of tequila, 50 types of bottled beers, numerous draft beers, burgers, salads, sandwiches and, of course, an extensive Tex-Mex menu with over 16 unique “twisted” tacos. Our Twisted Taco Express model features many décor elements of the Cantina model, but has a menu limited to our unique Tex-Mex food, 20 bottled beers and 2 draft beers and eliminates the need for a bar, bartenders and servers, giving franchisees the ability to operate a less complex business model.
Franchisees interested in the Cantina model require $450,000 in liquid assets and a net worth of $2 million, while franchisees interested in the Express model require $250,000 in liquid assets and a net worth of $750,000.
In addition to a unique concept with strong market demand, Twisted Taco Franchise, Inc. provides our franchisees with many benefits. A successful business requires a well-conceived and tested operational system. Here is where Twisted Taco Franchise, Inc. can really help you. We provide our franchisees with a fully developed program, a professional business management system, complete training, effective marketing campaigns, website management and optimization, marketing ideas and on-going support to help the business run efficiently.
A limited number of Twisted Taco franchises are available to those who possess the requisite financial and managerial resources, and who are willing to work hard for their own success. Should you be interested in owning one of our franchises, submit an application today!
