Why Choose Pokemoto?

Hawaiian Poke is trending in the restaurant industry. While it is trending and growing in popularity, it is still a niche market with no national company dominating the marketplace. In our opinion, we have plenty of room to grow. Pokemoto has actually been on a pretty rapid growth phase growing our company by over 300% in a short period of time. As a matter of fact, we have become the largest Poke restaurant chain in several states. Our current footprint has restaurants open or coming soon in Alabama, California, Connecticut, Florida, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, ,New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. We are looking to expand not only in these states but all across the United States and Internationally.

We offer a low-cost of entry, ease of operations (no cooking), exclusive territories, multi-unit discounts, simple and fast training, affordable tech solutions and innovative proprietary recipes and sauces. Poke is attractive to Millennials and Gen-Z demographics. Our products are fully customizable making training very easy and understandable. We like to say our products are "Instagrammable" and we leverage social media, email, text and local store marketing to promote the restaurants.

Pokemoto's management team is experienced in growing brands and has the advantage of being part of a publicly traded company (Nasdaq: SDOT). Coupled with having recently raised millions of dollars specifically allocated for the growth of Pokemoto franchising, we believe Pokemoto will be the leader in Hawaiian Poke Quick Service Restaurant segment.

Training & Support

As part of the Pokémoto organization, you will receive unparalleled franchise training and support. In fact, while restaurant experience is recommended, it is not necessary to partake in our restaurant franchise opportunity! After signing all the required franchise documents, you will begin a comprehensive franchise training and support program, designed to provide new owners with everything needed to run a successful and profitable Pokémoto franchise.

History

Thomas Nguyen founded Pokémoto in New Haven, CT in 2017. While living in Hawaii, he discovered and fell in love with traditional Hawaiian poké. He realized there was a gap in the New England market which is known for amazing seafood but was missing poké. Thomas gambled on a poké bowl company in a vacant location across from Yale University and risked it all! Luckily, it was a success and the first Pokémoto shop was born!

Ideal Candidate

Before opening a Pokemoto franchise, you need to meet some basic requirements. But don’t worry. We will provide you with all the information you need right from the start. Previous restaurant experience is preferred but is not a requirement. In addition to a comprehensive training program and ongoing support, when you join Pokemoto, you get unparalleled marketing, franchising and operational support from seasoned professionals. A member of our team will also be on-site at your opening to offer guidance
