Thaï Express Franchise UK

thai express franchise

Thaï Express is the new take on traditional Thaï Cuisine and the global leading brand for fast casual Thaï dining.

Our brand mission is to "Bring Thai Food to the Every Day". By providing freshly cooked Thai food in our vibrant and stylish stores, it transports customers back to their trip to Thailand! The origins of the menu come from traditional family recipes that have developed into household tastes.

Since our UK launch, we have been working tirelessly to ensure we have the platform for growth. We understand our customers, our products, and our store operations to ensure you have all the tools for success. 50% of revenues is driven by loyal fans and repeat customers and this continues to drive our innovation and development.

In 2021, we opened the world's first Thaï Express Kitchen, moving the brand into the fast-casual space, offering a full-service Thai dining concept.

Some key USPs

A perfect combination to ensure your success at every touch point:

Iconic and exclusive takeaway box - Our box is intricately decorated on the outside and just the look of it creates envy in passers-by.
All-inclusive menu - We cover halal, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free with a choice of protein and spice levels, which means we have something for everyone.
Open kitchen concept - The live wok stations allow customers to not only watch the food being made but transform every employee into a seasoned WOK chef, who will entertain and mesmerize while cooking like a pro.
Secret sauces - Our sauces are proprietary and ensure the flavors cannot be replicated which ultimately brings loyal customers flocking back day after day.
Solid supply chain and support - Our central warehouse will supply you directly, allowing you to concentrate on store operations and delivery of a great customer experience. Our processes and systems are backed by having been tested in over 300 locations over 20 years.
