Lukumades Franchise

The vendor opportunity at Lukumades

Lukumades is a quick-service restaurant franchise headquartered in New York. According to its 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the system consists of exactly 1 franchised unit. The number of company-owned locations is not disclosed. Average unit volume (AUV) is not reported in the FDD, and year-over-year unit growth is not available. For software vendors, this is a single-location account with a centralized purchasing structure — a narrow but clearly defined target.

The franchise operates under a 10-year initial term with a 6.0% royalty. Renewal is possible for an additional 10 years, subject to conditions including a remodel, a new agreement, a general release, and a renewal fee. The small unit count means any software sale is a one-off engagement unless the brand begins adding locations.

Who controls software purchasing

Purchasing authority sits at the HQ level. The FDD lists four individuals in Item 1. Exarchos Sourligkas serves as Chief Executive Officer, Director, and Founder — the ultimate decision-maker for any technology investment. John Sourligkas, Operations Manager for the USA and Middle East, is the most likely operational buyer for systems that touch store-level workflows. Antoinette Georgia Adam, Director of Human Resources, may be the point of contact for HR or payroll platforms. Chris Hionides is identified as Area Representative for Florida, which is notable given the single-unit footprint; he may influence or manage that location's operational needs.

No parent company is on file, and the brand appears independently owned. There are no additional operators mapped in our corpus beyond what the FDD discloses. This means the buying center is extremely compact — likely just the CEO and Operations Manager for most software categories.

Mandated and current tech stack

The 2025 FDD mandates one technology system: Revel by Revel Systems, Inc. serves as the point-of-sale platform. No other mandated or recommended vendors appear in the filing. This creates a clear competitive landscape for POS-adjacent integrations — payments, loyalty, online ordering, or kitchen display systems that complement Revel — but also means the core POS is locked in for the current franchisee.

For any other software category — accounting, inventory, scheduling, HR, or marketing — the FDD is silent. Vendors should assume an open field but must confirm directly with HQ whether any preferred-vendor relationships exist outside the four corners of the disclosure document.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

Item 8 of the FDD, which typically outlines procurement restrictions and designated suppliers, is not extracted in our data. Without that signal, we cannot confirm whether Lukumades requires franchisees to buy from specific suppliers or whether an approved-supplier program exists. Software vendors should treat this as an unknown and ask about procurement rules during initial outreach.

Renewal timing is clearer. The franchise agreement runs for 10 years. To renew, the franchisee must give 180 days' prior written notice, sign the then-current form of agreement, pay a renewal fee, remodel the restaurant to current standards, and secure continued premises rights. For a single-unit system, the renewal window is the most predictable trigger for a tech re-evaluation. If the brand adds units, each new location represents a fresh buying opportunity tied to its own 10-year cycle.
