About Tin Drum Asia Cafe

Founded in 2003, Tin Drum was created to reflect the bustling street-side cafes found throughout Asia. With the limited service operating model of fast casual and the dining experience of full casual, Tin Drum Asia Cafe is setting a new standard for the Fast Casual Dining franchise model. We call it "Fresh Casual." Our menu carries bold and broad flavor profiles; all food is cooked fresh to order in an open kitchen; the food is delivered to the guest at their table rather than being picked up at a counter; all this taking place in an environment with an elevated decor meant to evoke a bustling Asian street market.

About PINCHO

"Pincho
Pincho is an elevated fast-casual Latin grill concept. We’re a concept that was born from a passion for food and is ready to grow to the next level. We’re a modern-day burger and kebab joint, and we haven’t seen any other new franchise opportunity out there doing things quite like us.
“There’s nobody else like us in the U.S.,” says CEO and Co-Founder Otto Othman. “I’m not sure there’s anybody else like us anywhere that is serving up these kinds of meals influenced by iconic Latin street food and Latin American dishes. You wrap all that up into a concept that has fantastic economics, and you have something truly unique.”

The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Pincho franchise under a franchise agreement is $463,055 - $655,500. This includes $30,000 that must be paid to the Franchisor or affiliate.
The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Pincho franchise for the first restaurant if you sign an Area Development Agreement, which requires a minimum development of 3 Pincho Restaurants, is $523,055 - $715,500. This includes $90,000 that must be paid to the Franchisor or affiliate. If you and the franchisor agree to the development of more than 3 Pincho Restaurants, then your initial total investment for the first restaurant will increase by the number of additional Restaurants to be opened under the Area Development Agreement, multiplied by $30,000.
