Tailored Food Solutions, LLC ("Tailored") is an affiliate of Franchise Market Ventures, LLC
that was formed in 2010 to provide additional support for FMV’s growing Food and Bevarge (“F&B”)
client base of leading restaurant brands, culinary talent and mixologists.
Tailored is a national strategic consulting group that works to match properties and F&B
concepts with customized and high potential development opportunities based upon criteria
provided by the restaurant concept, culinary talent or mixologist to Tailored.
Properties include non-traditional venues such as airports, college campuses, hotels,
resorts, casinos, hospitals, military bases, sports arenas and convention centers,
and traditional venues such as malls, lifestyle centers, and other retail developments.
At the heart of Tailored's program is the Tailored Portfolio. The Tailored Portfolio
is a group of restaurant concepts, culinary talent and mixologists that Tailored has determined have a high probability
for successful matching in traditional and/or non-traditional development channels,
based upon: a) their historical performance b) the current
and future viability of the concept based upon market trends; c) the strength of
management and/or of its franchise system; d) the ability of the restaurant concept/culinary talent/mixologist
to be flexible and creative in structuring transactions; and e) the expressed interest
and scaleability of the concept based upon information provided by the concept to
Tailored.
Tailored actively promotes its Portfolio Members in connection with opportunities
that meet the particular development goals of the Portfolio Member (which may change
over time). For example, if a Portfolio Member has expressed interest in expansion
in airports through license agreements, Tailored leverages its relationships with
leading contract concessionaires, and knowledge of current and future opportunities,
to position its portfolio member for a successful match. Tailored applies a similar
approach in other development channels with its Portfolio Members.
