Taboonette Middleterranean launches franchise program

September 6, 2018

New York City restaurant Taboon is now franchising its fast casual concept — Taboonette Middleterranean Kitchen — in select markets across the United States, according to a press release. 

Taboonette's menu is inspired and created by Taboon's award-winning Executive Chef Efi Naon, an Israeli native and classically trained chef. Naon has focused his recent efforts towards bringing the slow-cooked, healthy cuisine of Taboon to the quick-service restaurant community, saidvTaboonette President Danny Hodak.

"Because the Taboonette reputation is already built, franchisees will be investing in an established concept and brand, rather than a trendy gimmick," Hodak said in the release. "We created Middleterranean fusion cuisine 15 years ago and the demand has consistently grown. We've been working hard at Taboonette to perfect Middleterranean at the quick-service level and it is a win-win for consumers and franchisees alike."

Taboonette offers the ability for prospective franchisees to take advantage of the high growth rate in the restaurant franchise space. A Taboonette franchise provides entrepreneurs with a fully developed and documented business model, comprehensive training programs and continued support and guidance from pioneers in the Middleterranean cuisine space.

The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Taboonette franchised business ranges from $350,500 to $637,400, which includes a franchise fee of $30,000 that must be paid to the franchisor and/or its affiliate when you sign the Franchise Agreement. 

Taboonette's ambitious expansion plans include opening as many as 50 franchise locations by 2021, across the country.
