HomeSlyce Pizza

The vendor opportunity at HomeSlyce Pizza

HomeSlyce Pizza is a quick-service restaurant concept headquartered in Maryland with 6 company-owned units and no franchised locations reported in its 2022 Franchise Disclosure Document. For software vendors, the addressable market is small—just 6 locations—but the brand’s centralized ownership structure and mandated technology stack create a straightforward, HQ-driven sales motion. The royalty rate is 6.0% on gross sales, and the initial franchise term runs 10 years, with renewal terms of 5 years under potentially different conditions.

Average unit volume is not disclosed in the most recent FDD, and year-over-year unit growth is not available. This makes HomeSlyce a niche target: a small, stable operator where a single decision-making team controls all technology purchasing.

Who controls software purchasing

Software purchasing authority sits with the executive team at HomeSlyce’s Maryland headquarters. The FDD lists Haluk Kantar as Chief Executive Officer and Founder, Rahman Saruhan as Chief Financial Officer, Dogan Salis as Director of Business Development and Founder, and Mark Regal as Franchise Director. In a 6-unit, company-owned system, the CEO and CFO are the most likely buyers for operational and financial software, while the Director of Business Development may evaluate tools that support growth or franchise sales. There is no multi-unit operator layer to navigate—vendors sell directly into HQ.

Mandated and current tech stack

The only technology mandate disclosed in the 2022 FDD is the Toast point-of-sale system by Toast, Inc. This system is required across all units. No other operational, accounting, payroll, inventory, or delivery platforms are named in the FDD, which means the brand may be using non-mandated or ad hoc solutions for those functions. For vendors selling complementary or adjacent software—such as labor scheduling, catering, loyalty, or analytics—the Toast mandate signals an existing relationship with a major restaurant-tech provider and a willingness to standardize technology from the top down.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

HomeSlyce Pizza’s FDD does not include an Item 8 extract, so the brand’s procurement model—whether it uses designated suppliers, approved suppliers, or an open purchasing environment—is not publicly known. The renewal terms described in Item 17 require the franchisee to provide notice, release claims, satisfy monetary obligations, comply with the franchise agreement, and sign a new agreement that may contain materially different terms, including different territory boundaries and royalty fees. The renewal term is 5 years. With no franchised units and no disclosed growth trajectory, software contract windows are likely tied to internal budgeting cycles or the expiration of existing vendor agreements rather than new unit openings.
