A Different Take on Tacos
Own a Fast Casual Franchise with Bold, Fresh, Unique Flavors and an Amazing Team Culture

With a deep love and appreciation for food, founder and CEO Michael Lenard, opened TaKorean in August 2010 out of a 1985 Ford step van that he converted to a food truck. A native of Washington, DC, Lenard is determined to provide healthy, well-balanced meals at a reasonable price to his fellow Washingtonians. Now you can bring a TaKorean franchise to your neighborhood and build an exciting business for yourself.

Site Selection & Construction
The TaKorean business model allows for a flexible footprint with simplified, established design packages. That means you can choose the size of your restaurant that meets the needs of your community. Food court, inline strip center location, drive-thru? Whatever the local dynamic, there’s probably a TaKorean option that fits.

Training & Ongoing Support
Visit our flagship restaurant for initial training, and then we will spend time in your restaurant for onsite training to help you get started and instill confidence in your team. Once your business is up and running, count on us to be there to support you as you continue to build and grow your business, both in-person throughout the year, and via phone, text, and email.

Cutting Edge Technology
Use your time leading and delveoping your team, instead of in the office handling the technology you need to run a smooth and efficient operation. From our integrated, AI based bookkeeping, POS, and inventory system to our automated invoicing software, your business will run smoothly as you build it.

Documentation & Resources
You will have access to our confidential operations manual, a valuable tool to reference for day-to-day procedures, exclusive recipes, scheduling, reporting, and beyond.

Marketing
We can help you with branded materials and web presence, as well as appropriate local campaigns to let your community know you and your staff are ready to offer them an excellent experience and great food.
