When we talk about transparency, we’re not just jumping on the bandwagon. It’s how we have done things since we opened our doors in 2007. From calories calculators to making recipes available online.

It’s no big deal to us, it’s just how we roll.

Ideally yes. We’re looking for amigos who are passionate about food and want to be involved in the day-to-day operation of their restaurant.

However, working in the restaurant yourself is not a requirement. For example some of our franchisees own and operate multiple Mad Mex restaurants, so they rely on their amazing restaurant managers to assist in running their restaurants.

Of course! Part of the application process includes a run through of specific financial information. 

However, as it relates to existing business, it’s confidential and so, we ask applicants to sign a non-disclosure agreement before we break out the spreadsheets.

Franchise Royalties are 6% of Gross Monthly Sales. The Marketing Levy is 3% of Gross Monthly Sales. (These figures are GST exclusive).

Si! Mad Mex are an inclusive business and we pride ourselves on the diversity of our franchisees, and the whole Mad Mex familia. 

Of course we are looking for amigos who are a good fit for the Mad Mex brand and vice versa.

We’re looking for amigos who are passionate about food and delivering exceptional customer experiences. They believe in the 100% wellbeing of their staff and customers in equal measure.

While serious about great food, they’re not short of a sense of humour.

They will thrive making sure everyone is having a great day.

That will depend on a number of factors including whether there is an available site within your preferred location, the size of the restaurant fit-out required and external conditions such as Council approvals.

Typically a brand-new restaurant can be operating within 3 months of making an initial application.

Occasionally we have existing, established Mad Mex restaurants for sale. In that case the timeline to ownership is often shorter.

We’ve got Mad Mex systems down to a fine art.

Your business will feel like a well-oiled machine (only the best oils of course). Our training and operations systems utilise world-best practices integrated with online videos and detailed in-restaurant systems and guides. The beauty of the Mad Mex system is in its simplicity, focus on quality ingredients – and flexibility that allows customers to “build their own” meal. You will begin six weeks of training based in Sydney, both in our training restaurant as well as off-site. You will also receive a comprehensive Mad Mex Operations Manual, together with online training tools, materials and support. When you launch a restaurant, our operations team will get their aprons on and work alongside you during the initial opening period, assisting both you and your team for opening. This formal training includes guidance with our online teaching tools and operations manual, with ongoing support from our operations team. You will feel fully prepared with the tools and support necessary to maximise the investment in your Mad Mex franchise.
