The Halal Guys, the innovative American Halal food concept, announced the signing of a new franchise deal for Quebec.

The new franchisee, who worked with Fransmart director of development, Paul Tran, has signed on to develop five units in the city of Montreal, after a separate multiunit deal closed earlier this year for Toronto.

With territories selling out so quickly, Fransmart, The Halal Guys’ exclusive Franchise Development Partner, plans to focus on top real estate markets, seeking sites in mass gathering areas like airports, train stations, malls, and neighborhoods with a significant late-night demand.

Since partnering with Fransmart and announcing the launch of a franchise program in 2014, the Halal Guys has opened two corporate brick-and-mortar restaurants in Manhattan, and has more than 200 franchise units in development in territories including Atlanta, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Virginia, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, and the entire state of California, which sold out within the first two months of franchising, as well as international locations for the Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia.
