Our Technology

Taziki’s leverages cutting-edge technology to enhance both operational efficiency and guest experience. With the integration of Restaurant 365 for seamless management and the launch of a proprietary app in 2021, customers can easily engage with the brand, driving higher frequency and larger basket sizes. Taziki’s Rewards program plays a key role in this success, while native and third-party delivery options ensure convenience and profitability for franchisees.

Conversion Experience

Some franchise business opportunities come as a result of multi-unit or family-owned restaurants closing their doors. Taziki's is ready to assist with conversion plans when that’s the case. This is often much less expensive than a new build and can be a great way to scale. Taziki’s corporate can guide you through the process of taking an existing restaurant space and converting it into a Taziki’s Mediterranean Cafe.

I can walk into an existing space, and know pretty much right away if it’s going to work. I love to help our partners like this.

Marketing

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.
