The financing guidance phase helps franchisees secure funding by providing structured models and strategies to simplify the lending process. During site selection and development, franchisees work with Taco John's real estate team to identify locations with high customer traffic. Training and operational readiness prepare franchisees through hands-on experience at flagship locations, online learning tools and support in areas such as daily operations, leadership and customer service. The grand opening and community integration phase focuses on establishing the new location and attracting customers. The final phase, growth and performance optimisation, provides ongoing support for improving operations, updating menu offerings and implementing technology-driven efficiencies to help franchisees maintain profitability and expand their business. Taco John's vice-president for development Shannon Iverson stated: "Our franchisees are the backbone of our success, and we're committed to giving them every possible advantage.
