Our Work:
ROI Restaurant Consulting partnered with Poppo’s Taqueria to help them scale effectively while maintaining the high quality and consistency their customers love.

Technology Upgrade:
We facilitated a seamless transition from Clover POS to Toast POS, equipping Poppo’s with a modern, scalable system that better suited their growing operational needs.

Franchising Readiness:
ROI laid the foundation for Poppo’s to begin franchising by creating scalable systems, operational consistency, and a proven growth model.

Results:
