The vendor opportunity at La Diperie
La Diperie is a quick-service restaurant concept headquartered in Arizona and operating under the MTY Franchising Inc. umbrella. The brand currently has 2 franchised units, with no company-owned locations disclosed in the 2026 FDD. Year-over-year unit growth sits at 100%, signaling early-stage expansion. For software vendors, the immediate addressable market is small—just 2 locations—but the growth trajectory and parent-company backing suggest a window for early integration before the footprint scales.
The franchise system is concentrated in Wisconsin, with a single mapped operator running a single unit. No multi-unit operators appear in the current data. This lean operator base means any software sale will likely require direct engagement with the franchisor rather than a ground-up operator sell-through strategy.
Who controls software purchasing
Purchasing authority at La Diperie is centralized at the corporate level. The 2026 FDD lists five executives in Item 1: Eric Lefebvre (Chief Executive Officer), Renee St-Onge (Chief Financial Officer), Jeff Smit (Chief Operating Officer), Anthony Crosby (Senior Vice President of Restaurant Operations), and Blake Borwick (Vice President of Restaurant Operations). For a technology vendor, the most relevant contacts are likely COO Jeff Smit and SVP Anthony Crosby, who oversee day-to-day operations and would typically evaluate tools that touch store-level workflows or digital ordering.
Because the system is small and fully franchised, the CEO and CFO may also be directly involved in vendor selection, particularly for systems that affect unit economics or require franchisee adoption. Vendors should prepare for a top-down sales motion rather than expecting franchisees to champion new technology independently.
Mandated and current tech stack
The only technology mandate disclosed in the 2026 FDD is Olo by Olo Inc. This covers the brand’s online ordering and digital commerce layer. No additional POS, back-office, inventory, or labor management systems are named as mandated or recommended. This creates a greenfield for complementary solutions—provided they integrate cleanly with Olo and do not conflict with any undisclosed parent-company standards from MTY Franchising Inc.
Vendors offering POS, kitchen display, loyalty, or analytics tools should note the Olo mandate and position their product as an Olo-compatible extension. The absence of a named POS vendor in the FDD does not mean one is not in use; it simply means the franchisor has not chosen to mandate or recommend one at this time.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
Item 8 of the 2026 FDD contains no extractable procurement signal, meaning the filing does not specify whether La Diperie uses designated suppliers, approved suppliers, or an open procurement model. In practice, this often means the franchisor retains discretion and may evaluate vendors on a case-by-case basis. Vendors should approach with a clear value proposition and be prepared to navigate an informal approval process.
Renewal terms offer a timing hook. The initial franchise agreement runs 10 years. Franchisees in good standing may renew for a single additional 5-year term, with no further right to renew after that. With the brand’s recent unit growth, the earliest franchisees may be approaching mid-term or renewal windows, periods when operators and the franchisor often reassess their technology stack. A vendor that engages now can position itself for those decision points.
How to read the La Diperie FDD
The full 2026 Franchise Disclosure Document is embedded below. Key sections for software vendors include Item 1 (executive team), Item 11 (mandated technology and supplier obligations), and Item 17 (renewal and termination conditions). Because La Diperie is part of MTY Franchising Inc., some procurement or technology standards may be influenced at the parent level even if not explicitly stated in the brand-specific FDD. Review the document with that lens.
