Currito is a dynamic, fast-casual restaurant concept that has successfully redefined the humble burrito by taking it on a global journey. Moving far beyond traditional Mexican fare, Currito offers customers a vibrant menu of 'Burritos Without Borders', drawing inspiration from cultures across the world, including Asian, Mediterranean, Indian, and American flavors. This commitment to fresh, globally-inspired ingredients and customizable offerings positions Currito perfectly to capitalize on the soaring demand for healthy, high-quality, and adventurous fast-casual dining.
In a competitive market, Currito stands out as a brand focused on Flavor First, Real Ingredients, and Healthy Options. Our customers, who are increasingly health-conscious and seek variety, can choose from curated items like the Bangkok Bowl, Superfood Salad, or a custom-built wrap or salad, paired with a fresh, carefully crafted smoothie. This menu diversity and focus on quality have helped Currito achieve a strong brand reputation and impressive Average Unit Volumes (AUV), proving its compelling market position and operational efficiency. Now is the ideal time to partner with an established, growing franchise as we strategically expand across the United States.
Investing in a Currito franchise offers a compelling opportunity within the booming USA fast-casual restaurant market, a sector projected to reach over $337.8 billion by 2032. Key reasons to join the Currito family include:
Proven & Scalable Concept: A successful operating model built around globally-inspired, customizable menu options that cater to contemporary dietary trends (healthy, fresh, customizable).
Strong Financial Performance: Corporate data shows Currito locations are capable of achieving robust financial results, with average system-wide gross revenue above $1.33 Million*.
Expert Leadership & Support: Benefit from the vast, multi-concept restaurant experience of the founders, who are part of the esteemed Thunderdome Restaurant Group.
"White Space" Opportunity: While the brand has established a strong presence in the eastern U.S. and is actively expanding, there is significant territory and market opportunity for both single and multi-unit developers in target markets nationwide.
Operational Efficiency: Currito's model is designed for streamlined operations, potentially leading to minimal buildout requirements and reduced labor costs compared to full-service dining.
Currito is committed to empowering its franchise partners with a world-class support system, leveraging the extensive experience of the Thunderdome Restaurant Group.
Pre-Launch Support (Real Estate & Development): We assist with the critical initial steps, including site selection guidance for high-traffic areas (strip centers, central business districts, campuses, airports), lease negotiation, and coordinating the efficient design & construction process. Typical floor plans range from 1,800-2,500 sq. ft. for in-line and 600-800 sq. ft. for food court locations.
Training (Academic & Operational): A comprehensive program ensures you and your operating team are fully prepared. This includes an estimated 100 hours of classroom instruction and 100+ hours of on-the-job training, covering everything from food preparation and safety standards to customer service, POS systems, and unit management.
Marketing Support: Franchisees benefit from structured marketing resources, including ad templates, assistance with website development, utilizing social media strategies, and guidance on SEO and local store marketing.
Ongoing Operational Support: The relationship continues long after your grand opening. You will receive continuous assistance from Field Operations staff, access to a dedicated Franchisee Intranet Platform, and guidance on technology, people, and culture development to maintain brand standards and maximize efficiency.
Currito is seeking experienced, passionate, and financially capable partners to drive national expansion.
Business Background: A proven track record as an owner or operator in the Quick-Service Restaurant (QSR), fast-casual, or full-service restaurant industry is preferred. We seek partners who understand the complexities of the food service business.
Passion & Drive: Must demonstrate the enthusiasm, tenacity, and passion required to operate a Currito to the highest quality and service standards, adhering to the core values of "Make a Memory" and "Add Value."
Investment Capability: Looking for experienced single and multi-unit partners. A minimum liquid capital of approximately $400,000 and a net worth of $400,000 is generally required for single-unit development. Multi-unit partners will need higher capacity.
