3 Reasons to Buy a Drive-Thru Franchise

Are you searching for the most popular reasons to buy a drive-thru franchise?

At Jack in the Box, our always open drive-thru lanes are an important factor in the success of our more than 2,100 restaurants.

In this article, we will take a look at three of the most common reasons to buy a drive-thru franchise along with why they should be considered.

1) Speed & Convenience

In today’s fast-paced world, consumers place a large amount of value in brands that are able to fulfill their needs with speed and convenience.

Drive-thru lanes allow customers to place their order, pay at the window, and receive their food without having to leave their vehicle.

At Jack in the Box, roughly 90% of our 500M annual guests choose drive-thru or take-out because of the speed and convenience it offers.

Our drive-thru has become such an important piece of our business model that our new prototype doesn’t even have an inside dining room.

Instead, we built a dual drive-thru lane with two order stations and a covered walk-up window for pick-up, mobile, and take-out orders to expedite the purchasing process.

2) Serve the Late-Night Crowd

Drive-thru lanes give fast food restaurants many advantages. One of those advantages comes with staying open late-night.

When the lights turn purple at Jack in the Box, our late-night guests can pick one entrée, two sides, and a drink to create their own Munchie Meal.

3) Mobile Ordering Apps

With the emergence of online ordering and third-party delivery apps, drive-thru lanes are only going to become more important in the future.

You have probably noticed how many quick-service restaurants are developing their own mobile ordering apps to compete with apps like DoorDash and Uber Eats.

For example, the Jack in the Box Order App provides a convenient ordering experience for pick-up or delivery with just a few taps.

Customers can easily find their nearest location, browse our 24/7 menu, and customize their order from their mobile device.

Plus, loyal fans can earn points and redeem exclusive rewards with The Jack Pack loyalty program.
