Franchise Opportunity · Canada
Own the Sinbad experience in your city.
A proven Iraqi restaurant concept, built around charcoal grilling, family platters, and warm hospitality. Two London, Ontario locations running today, selective expansion next.
Why Sinbad
A real Iraqi kitchen, not a generic Mediterranean concept.
Masgouf, quzi, tashreeb, dolma, pacha on Sundays, Sinbad keeps dishes that actually define Iraqi food, paired with crowd-pleasing charcoal grills and sandwiches. Halal, family-friendly, and built for both dine-in and catering volume.
Two locations have proven the model in London, Ontario. The menu, grill operation, and supplier relationships are documented and ready to replicate.
Operating playbook
Kitchen layout, charcoal grill setup, supplier list, recipe cards, and opening-week training. No guessing.
Brand & marketing
Launch-ready brand system, the Sinbad sailor mark, warm cream + terracotta palette, bilingual EN / AR assets, and a local-SEO-ready website template.
Real hospitality DNA
Sinbad isn't a fast-casual flip. It's a family restaurant built around long meals and shared platters, the kind of experience guests drive across town for.
Catering upside
Family platters, masgouf centrepieces, and mezze trays give every location a built-in catering line beyond dine-in revenue.
Halal by design
All meat halal. Positions Sinbad strongly in growing Canadian markets with Middle Eastern, South Asian, and Muslim communities.
