Quick service restaurant

Software purchasing at The Point is controlled at the franchisor level, with Christian Touzet listed as the Agent for Service of Process in the 2025 FDD. The brand mandates a specific tech stack including Toast POS, Paytronix, and Sling. The addressable market is extremely small, consisting of only 3 total units, with 1 franchised location representing the primary software sales target.

The vendor opportunity at The Point

The Point is a quick-service restaurant brand headquartered in Oregon with a total of 3 units, consisting of 2 company-owned locations and 1 franchised location. The average unit volume (AUV) is $1,646,961.59, with a 5.0% royalty rate and a 10-year initial franchise term. For software vendors, the addressable market is limited to the single franchised unit, as company-owned locations typically fall under internal procurement. The brand’s year-over-year unit growth is not disclosed in the most recent FDD.

Who controls software purchasing

Decision-making authority appears centralized at the franchisor level. The 2025 FDD lists Christian Touzet as the Agent for Service of Process, suggesting a lean executive structure where the owner or a small leadership team controls vendor selection. No additional C-suite executives, such as a CIO or CTO, are on file. Vendors should direct initial outreach to this point of contact, recognizing that the small scale likely means the franchisor personally evaluates and approves all technology partners.

Mandated and current tech stack

The Point mandates three specific technology systems for its franchisees. Toast POS by Toast, Inc. serves as the point-of-sale system. Paytronix is mandated, likely for loyalty, gift card, or online ordering functionality. Sling is mandated for employee scheduling and workforce management. These mandates are binding on the franchised location, meaning any competing POS, loyalty, or scheduling software would need to displace an existing mandated vendor, a high barrier to entry.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

Item 8 of the FDD, which typically outlines procurement and purchasing requirements, contains no extractable signal in our corpus. This means the specific supplier designation model—whether designated, approved, or open—is not disclosed. Renewal conditions, detailed in Item 17, require the franchisee to give advance notice, be in full compliance with all contractual obligations, renovate to then-current standards, and sign the then-current form of franchise agreement, including a personal guaranty and a general release where permitted by law. The renewal term length is not specified. With a 10-year initial term and no disclosed recent activity, software contract windows are likely infrequent and tied to these renewal events.
