Yaya's Flame Broiled Chicken Franchise

About Yaya's Flame Broiled Chicken

YAYA'S Flame Broiled Chicken restaurants offer fast-food style options to customers for eat-in or take-out dining. The concept centers on providing a healthier alternative to burgers and other traditional fast food choices. The YAYA'S cooking style involves marinating fresh (not previously frozen) chicken in a blend of spices and herbs. Then the chicken is cooked on a gas-fired open grill. In most restaurants, the cooking area of the kitchen is in view of the customers. This unique setup allows customers to see their food being cooked and appreciate the unique sights, aromas, and sounds of flame broiling.

In order to make healthy entrees that are lower in calories, fat, and cholesterol than traditional fast food, YAYA'S doesn’t batter or deep-fry their chicken. Restaurants rely on the spiced marinade and flame-grilling method to ensure a high level of flavor. There are several types of meals on the menu, including chicken dinners with side dishes such as mashed potatoes, cole slaw, and baked beans. Customers can also get southwest, Asian, or Caesar salads topped with chicken. Rice-based or potato-based chicken bowls come in several different flavors. Sandwiches and wraps are also available.

Why Choose Yaya's Flame Broiled Chicken?

For franchisees who wish to work in the competitive fast-food industry, YAYA'S Flame Broiled Chicken could present a unique alternative to more well-known burger franchises. With a smaller brand, franchisees could enjoy the potential benefits of investing in the concept prior to significant expansion. Although there are fewer than 20 YAYA'S restaurants currently, the company has been around for over 30 years and has a loyal following in areas where locations exist.

The YAYA'S cooking method of frame broiling fits in with the quick service expectations customers have while reducing the common unhealthy aspects of fast food. As such, the YAYA'S concept is set up well as more people become health conscious and seek to make dietary choices that are lower in fats and calories. YAYA's commitment to using only fresh (never frozen), all-natural chicken is also a huge plus, especially in territories where customers care about the quality and sourcing of ingredients.

Ideal Candidate

Good candidates to open a YAYA'S Flame Broiled Chicken restaurant are those who want to work in the food industry and help grow a lesser-known restaurant brand. Entrepreneurs should be willing to build a restaurant from the ground up and follow the well-defined YAYA'S system. The franchisor requires that the franchisee and/or operating partner manages the restaurant personally on a full-time basis. Ideal candidates must be able to access funds for the franchise fee and construction of a restaurant. Additionally, there may be restrictions on available territories, so strong candidates are those willing to open a restaurant in one of the states prioritized by the franchisor.
