The vendor opportunity at Everytable
Everytable Franchisor, PBCEverytable operates 49 quick-service restaurant units, all of which are company-owned. For software vendors, this means a single, centralized buyer rather than a fragmented network of franchisees. The total addressable market is small but concentrated, with every purchasing decision flowing through the headquarters in California. The brand’s 2023 FDD does not list any mandated or recommended technology systems, indicating a potential blank slate for vendors offering POS, payroll, inventory, or operational tools.
Who controls software purchasing
The executive team listed in the FDD is lean. Sam Polk serves as Chief Executive Officer and Director, while Jered Newell holds the title of Head of Finance and Administration and Chief Financial Officer. In a 49-unit chain, these two roles typically control or heavily influence software evaluation and procurement. Kaster D. Garrett, President and Franchise Program Launch Manager, may also be involved if the brand expands franchising. Vendors should direct initial outreach to the finance and administration function, where ROI and operational efficiency arguments will resonate.
Mandated and current tech stack
The 2023 FDD contains no extract naming mandated or recommended technology vendors. This absence is itself a signal: the brand either has not standardized its tech stack or chooses not to disclose it. For a vendor, this means there is no incumbent to displace and no formal RFP process to navigate. The operator footprint is tiny—just three mapped operators across Michigan, Hawaii, and Minnesota—suggesting that any existing systems are likely managed informally or at the HQ level.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
Item 8 of the FDD, which typically outlines procurement restrictions, was not extracted in the available data. Without that signal, assume an open or undisclosed procurement model. The franchise agreement runs for an initial 5-year term, with one 5-year renewal available provided the franchisor is still operating in the market and the franchisee meets conditions including a $20,000 renewal fee. For company-owned units, contract cycles are not publicly tied to these terms, but budget planning likely follows the fiscal year. Vendors should engage the CFO’s office well before year-end to align with budgeting cycles.
How to read the Everytable FDD
The full 2023 Franchise Disclosure Document is embedded below. It was filed with state franchise regulators and contains the legal and financial disclosures required for franchise sales. Key sections for software vendors include Item 11 (franchisor’s assistance, advertising, computer systems, and training) and Item 8 (restrictions on sources of products and services). Reviewing these items will clarify whether any technology mandates exist that were not captured in the summary data.
