The vendor opportunity at The Port of Peri Peri

The Port of Peri Peri is a quick-service restaurant chain headquartered in Illinois with 23 total units, 21 of which are franchised. For software vendors, the addressable market is small but highly centralized. All 23 mapped operators are single-unit franchisees, meaning there are no multi-unit operators to influence purchasing decisions independently. The top states by unit count are Illinois (7), California (3), Texas (3), Washington (2), and Ohio (1). Average unit volume is not disclosed in the most recent FDD, and year-over-year unit growth is not available.

Who controls software purchasing

Technology purchasing authority sits squarely at the franchisor level. The 2026 FDD identifies Syed Naveed Pasha as President and CEO. In a system of this size with no multi-unit operators, the CEO is the de facto buyer for any software that touches franchise operations. Vendors should direct all outreach to the corporate office in Illinois. The chain appears independently owned, with no parent company on file, so there is no larger enterprise buyer to navigate.

Mandated and current tech stack

The franchise mandates two technology systems. The point-of-sale system is Clover by Clover Network, LLC, operating on the First Data network. Additionally, all locations must use The Port of Peri Peri proprietary app. No other mandated or recommended technology vendors are named in the FDD. This creates a narrow wedge for vendors selling solutions that integrate with Clover or replace the proprietary app, though any replacement would require buy-in from the CEO.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

The FDD does not include an Item 8 extract, so the procurement model—whether designated supplier, approved supplier, or open—is not disclosed. Similarly, the initial franchise term and Item 17 renewal conditions are not available in the data. This lack of visibility makes it difficult to anticipate natural contract windows. Vendors should approach this as a relationship-driven sale to the CEO rather than timing a predictable RFP cycle.

How to read the The Port of Peri Peri FDD

The 2026 Franchise Disclosure Document is the authoritative source for understanding this system's technology mandates, fee structure, and unit economics. Key sections for software vendors include Item 11 for mandated systems and Item 19 for financial performance representations, though AUV is not disclosed here. The full FDD is embedded below for your review. For a ranked target list of franchise systems matched to your software category, reach out to FranCloud.
