Based in Denver, Colorado, Teriyaki Madness has become a prominent name in the American fast-casual dining scene, celebrated for its healthy, fresh, and made-to-order meals.

The brand distinguishes itself with a tempting array of Asian-inspired dishes. The menu features an assortment of Japanese-style teriyaki bowls, packed with perfectly grilled meats, rice, noodles, or vegetables, and bursting with delightful flavors.

Moreover, Teriyaki Madness offers a diverse selection of chicken, salmon, beef, and vegetarian options, all enhanced by a variety of savory sauces and delicious sides.

The inception of this exceptional chain dates back to 2003 when Eric Garma, Rod Arreola, and Allan Arreola came together in Las Vegas, Nevada, to create something unique. Starting its franchising efforts in 2005, Teriyaki Madness has since made a significant impact in the fast-casual Asian dining market.

Training 

Teriyaki Madness franchise provides a comprehensive training and support. Here's an in-depth look at what franchisees can expect:

Training Program: Teriyaki Madness provides a comprehensive training program that includes a mix of internet-based, classroom, and on-site training to ensure thorough preparation.

Who Needs to Attend: The initial training program must be attended and successfully completed by at least two individuals. This includes the franchisee's Operating Principal and a full-time General Manager. Additionally, one other approved employee is required to undergo this training.

Training Content: The program covers a wide range of essential topics for store operations. This includes sales techniques, product orientation, accounting procedures, food preparation, and overall operations management.

Location and Duration: Training takes place at designated Teriyaki Madness locations, which may include their headquarters. The training process includes pre-training videos and workbooks, classroom instruction, and hands-on, on-the-job training.

Territory Protection

Franchisees of Teriyaki Madness are granted the right to operate their business at an Approved Location within a designated Area of Protection. This territory is determined based on geographic, population, and other relevant demographic characteristics.

During the term of the Franchise Agreement, franchisees are assigned a specific territory where they will operate their Teriyaki Madness restaurant. The Area of Protection is typically defined using criteria such as zip codes, street boundaries, and county boundaries, or it may be illustrated on a map attached to the Franchise Agreement.

Once established, the Area of Protection will not be altered or modified without the franchisee’s consent. This stability provides franchisees with a level of security and predictability for their business operations.

Despite the designated Area of Protection, franchisees may still encounter competition from other franchisees, franchisor-owned outlets, or other distribution channels and competitive brands controlled by Teriyaki Madness. This ensures a dynamic market environment while protecting the franchisee’s primary operational area.
