About Ho-Lee-Chow

The Ho-Lee Chow concept capitalizes on the quick-food service industry. They cater to the North American love of Chinese food with a quality product and impeccable standards of preparation and delivery. It is fresh, attractive, delicious and healthful, low in additivies and free of MSG. Prepared and delivered hot, fast and fresh to home or office. The Ho-Lee-Chow� concept is based upon applying proven franchise principles to Chinese Food - the last frontier of Quick-Service restaurants. Until Ho-Lee-Chow� was conceived, consumers just couldn't find Chinese Food with the quality, service, value and cleanliness that they have come to expect from other quick service providers, such as hamburgers, subs, pizza and chicken. People want more variety now. Their lifestyles still make convenient quick service food a necessity, but they want a break from the basic fare. The ethnic food sector is booming, and Chinese Food is a favorite.
