Community Connection Meets Digital Innovation

Taziki’s is a community-driven brand where the food and the hospitality can do all of the marketing you need… but of course, we balance that high-touch approach with very high-tech initiatives. From 1-1 email and SMS communication, and personalized suggestions in the app based on past orders, to advertisements on your favorite social media and streaming platforms, we execute it all. Taziki’s marketing fund of just .75% manages to do a lot with this minimal contribution, including acting as your marketing agency assisting with everything from strategy to creating local graphics.

Taziki’s is well-positioned to be best in class for technology. That covers all aspects of our marketing: from a new TikTok account, our ordering platforms and our 1-to-1 marketing initiatives. We are ever-evolving and our franchisees benefit from our nimble approach.

Catering Sales

Catering is a significant portion of Taziki's sales and adds a Mediterranean flair to any event. Whether it's a gender reveal for 20 people, a wedding with 250 guests, or a conference with 5,000 attendees, Taziki's is set up to satisfy any catering need. With convenient and easy online ordering, most requests can be fulfilled from a mobile device or computer. When a personal touch is needed, we always strive to make the customer feel cared for.

Taziki’s Catering is a way for people to delight in the flavors of the Mediterranean with a diverse range of options to suit every need. We have options for every size group and multiple ways to order. Perfect for corporate meetings, small gatherings and special events with both boxed lunch and buffet options available. Taziki’s Catering is a great way for new customers to experience the brand and try out different things on the menu. The average catering order for Taziki’s is over $350 with a profit of over $200 and it would take 10-15 regular orders to get that level of profit. By the end of 2025, the average Taziki’s location will have close to $500k in annualized catering sales

From LSM to CSA

Taziki’s has always found marketing success with a role traditionally called a “Local Store Marketer.” This role is very community driven, going to events to showcase the brand, and dropping off free food tastings in office parks as example. This role has evolved to include a more measurable metric, catering sales. The newer title of “Community Sales Ambassador” better illustrates the expectations of the role.
