Same Same but
Different! ™
At Thaï Express, we’ve thoughtfully developed a Thai food franchise experience that balances tradition with innovation. Every element — from bold flavours and modern design to marketing, training, and operations — has been carefully tested and refined. Backed by MTY Group, our holistic approach to franchise cuisine sets us apart.
Franchisees benefit from years of dedicated research, testing, and tasting. This work has brought us to where we are today. Each effort has contributed to the concept we’ve built: one rooted in intentional design, streamlined processes, strategic marketing, and strong core values.

“When you go into other franchise restaurants it’s always the same, whether you go into this one on this street or that one on that street.
When you come into Thaï Express, though, it’s different. Every Thaï Express is familiar — but there’s a uniqueness, and customers really respond to that. The friendly atmosphere, the great service and the amazing food keeps them coming back again and again.”
