“Qdoba is a relatively young brand and their ability to keep consistency at the management level, I believe, is what has enabled Qdoba to grow at the rate they are experiencing. In this type of business, the Franchisor must be the leader of the brand. As a Franchisee who has experience in other concepts, I can say this Franchisor is fully committed to not only the growth of the brand but also the health of it's Franchisees.

“We've been with Qdoba since the beginning and are even more enthusiastic about the concept today than we were when we signed on. We plan to continue our steady new store development plans and we're very much looking forward to being a part of Qdoba's evolution into a national brand.”

“When I first visited Qdoba Mexican Grill and met with the Senior Management, I was immediately impressed by their dedication and commitment and concept. It was evident from the beautifully designed interior down to the freshly prepared ingredients that they not only believed in the concept but in their products as well.
As I continue to open my own franchises, the staff's willingness to make the process go smoothly is commendable. Everything from helping with finding the proper real estate to working with us on construction and budget costs; Qdoba Mexican Grill has shown it's self not only to be great place to eat but an excellent franchise opportunity as well.”

“As one of the earliest Qdoba franchisees, I am very satisfied with Qdoba as a franchise investment. We have experienced solid growth throughout our nearly ten year history. Today, we have over 30 stores open, with several more in the pipeline. With consistent comp store sales growth, and great customer acceptance at new locations, we are confident our growth will continue. We feel like we’re just getting started!
Throughout our history, we have always been impressed with Qdoba’s support of the franchise system. Additionally, as a franchisee, it is reassuring to see Qdoba continue to open and operate corporate- owned stores, as well as to attract new, high quality franchisees.”

“We have been tremendously impressed by the level and quality of support that we have received. We continue to be impressed by the level of dedication, talent and commitment that the Qdoba family brings to the brand. When selecting a franchise concept one of the principal characteristics that we sought was that the franchisor was committed to continuing to develop company stores - this demonstrates a genuine long-term commitment to, and belief in, the brand. Qdoba Restaurant Corporation continues to pursue active development of company stores. They are committed to the brand and that helps to reinforce our commitment to the brand. Ultimately this translates into better food, a better store environment, happier franchisees and, most importantly, happy customers. We are very excited to be a part of the Qdoba family and look forward to continuing to grow with the brand.”

“As a nine year Franchisee of Qdoba, I couldn’t be happier with the quality of product we serve, the leverage of brand we have built and the overall unit economics of the concept.
Operations, marketing, R&D, site selection support, etc continue to exceed my expectations. Qdoba management continues to challenge itself to make our brand even stronger and sales and profits even higher.
With the long tenured and high quality level of upper management and leadership in place, along with their franchisee support, commitment to excellence, high standards, integrity and character…I am very excited and confident in the Qdoba brand and will continue to invest aggressively in new and existing units.
