Così

Franchise Overview

This fast-casual restaurant concept specializes in made-to-order flatbread sandwiches, salads, soups, and specialty beverages, with a strong emphasis on catering services for corporate and institutional clients. The brand differentiates itself through its signature freshly baked flatbread, prepared in-restaurant throughout the day. Locations are primarily found in urban markets and institutional settings such as hospitals and office buildings.

The franchise model targets multi-unit operators with proven restaurant experience, strong capitalization, and a commitment to brand standards. Franchisees benefit from an established menu platform, catering infrastructure including a dedicated catering rewards program, and brand support. The company actively recruits multi-unit developers to expand the brand across the U.S. and offers a menu licensing program alongside traditional franchise agreements.
