The vendor opportunity at Khalil Biryani House
Khalil Biryani House is a quick-service restaurant concept headquartered in New York. According to its 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), the brand operates just 2 company-owned locations, with no franchised units reported. The average unit volume (AUV) is not disclosed. For software vendors, the addressable market is therefore extremely limited: only 2 units, both under direct corporate control. The brand’s royalty rate is 5.0% and the initial franchise term is 10 years, with the possibility of two 5-year renewals. However, with no year-over-year unit growth disclosed, the brand does not appear to be in an active expansion phase. The operator footprint data shows 1 mapped operator (none multi-unit), with units falling only in the 1-unit band. The top state is New York with 1 unit; the second unit’s location is not mapped. The brand appears independently owned, with no parent company on file. This makes it a low-priority target for most software vendors, unless they are seeking to establish a relationship with a small, independent operator that may grow in the future.
Who controls software purchasing
Software purchasing decisions at Khalil Biryani House are centralized at the headquarters level. The FDD lists the following executives in Item 1: Md Khalilur Rahman (Managing Member), Mst Rima Khatun (Managing Member), Sakia Sraboni (Director of Food & Beverage), Rakib Uzzaman (Chief Marketing Officer), and Ahad Ali (Chief Financial Officer). As a small chain with no franchisees, the managing members and the CFO are likely the key decision-makers for any software procurement. Vendors should direct their pitches to the CFO, Ahad Ali, for financial and operational tools, and to the CMO, Rakib Uzzaman, for marketing technology. The Director of Food & Beverage may influence operational tech choices.
Mandated and current tech stack
The 2024 FDD mandates QuickBooks and QuickBooks Online for accounting purposes. No other technology systems—such as point-of-sale (POS), inventory management, or payroll—are disclosed as mandated or recommended. This suggests that the brand either uses non-disclosed systems or has minimal tech infrastructure. For software vendors, this represents a potential gap: if the brand is only using QuickBooks for accounting, there may be opportunities to introduce POS, online ordering, or HR platforms. However, with only 2 units, the scale of deployment would be small.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
The FDD does not include an Item 8 extract, meaning there is no disclosed information about designated or approved suppliers. Procurement appears to be open, with no franchisor-imposed restrictions beyond the accounting software mandate. The franchise agreement (Item 17) allows for two additional 5-year renewal terms, provided the franchisee meets conditions such as compliance, renovation, and signing a general release. However, since there are no franchisees, these renewal windows are irrelevant for now. For the company-owned units, software contracts likely follow standard corporate renewal cycles, but no specific timing is disclosed. Given the brand’s small size and lack of growth, software vendors should not expect frequent or large-scale purchasing events.
How to read the Khalil Biryani House FDD
The full 2024 FDD is available below in our embedded viewer. It contains detailed information on the franchisor’s history, fees, obligations, and financial performance (if any). Key sections for software vendors include Item 1 (executives), Item 11 (franchisor’s assistance, which may list mandated tech), and Item 17 (renewal and termination). Since the brand is small, the FDD is relatively short. Use it to verify the facts presented here and to identify any additional tech requirements or purchasing processes.
