Change Of American Interest In International Franchise Cuisines

Posted by International Franchiselaw on October 12th, 2017

Americans are more than willing to try new things and food creations are certainly no exception. Rather than simply copy another hamburger or chicken fast food restaurant, franchise entrepreneurs are expanding into opening Indian, Chinese, and Mexican franchises to offer Americans a taste of authentic international cuisine with quick service and affordable prices. The franchise model that worked for McDonald's hamburgers, Kentucky fried chicken, and Subway submarine sandwiches could also work for Tikka Masala, Pablano Tacos, and General Tsao's Chicken.

There's no doubt that Americans are at least becoming more interested and curious about exotic, international flavors. All one has to do is to look at the expansion in the "International" aisle in the major supermarket chains that have expanded from one-quarter of one shelf to an aisle full spices, rubs, powders, and sauces to see that international flavors are in high demand. Developing franchises to serve foods with these spices could simply be the logical next step.

In addition to restaurant, franchises offering international dishes, spice, sauce, and rub franchises are being developed as well. Spices were once the exclusive domain of barbeque enthusiast that would compete at state fairs using their secret, proprietary combination of spices to produce the best barbeque flavors.

Chinese cooking spices include green Sichuan peppercorns, dried red chilies, star Anise, coriander, and fennel seeds. Indian spices are Cardamom, Clove, Cassia bark, Cumin, Coriander, Nutmeg, and Mustard seeds.

The future of traditional American fast food franchising may lie in adopting international tastes and spices. There is a growing trend for people to want ethnic flavors like Mexican peppers, Indian curries, and Chinese chilies and spices. International spices and fast food franchises are in their infancy and may present a high risk, high reward type of investment so be careful and don't just jump in.
