HICKSVILLE, N.Y. — October 13, 2026

Naz’s Halal Food has been named to the 2026 Franchise Times Top 400, earning the No. 397 position in the annual ranking of the largest U.S.-based franchise systems by global systemwide sales.

The recognition marks an important milestone for a brand that began as a New York food cart and has grown into an expanding quick-service restaurant system serving halal rice platters, gyros, burgers, sandwiches, wings and other familiar favorites.

Franchise Times evaluates franchise systems using systemwide sales and unit data. The 2026 ranking reflects 2025 performance and follows a research process that uses information supplied by brands as well as franchise disclosure documents, public filings and other brand-level data.

A Growing Franchise System

Naz’s Halal’s inclusion in the Top 400 comes during a period of continued franchise growth. The brand’s current 2026 Franchise Disclosure Document reports 54 total restaurants at the end of 2025, including 41 franchised or licensed locations.

For qualified franchise candidates, that growth is supported by a restaurant model designed around familiar menu categories, convenient ordering channels and a typical footprint of approximately 1,800 to 2,400 square feet.

Naz’s Halal reported average 2025 Gross Sales of $1,707,956.65 among the 43 restaurants included in its current Item 19 financial performance representation. The estimated initial investment for a single restaurant is $322,800 to $584,000.

Recognition Based on Systemwide Performance

The Franchise Times Top 400 is an annual ranking focused on the scale of franchise systems. Franchise Times describes the list as a ranking based on worldwide systemwide sales and units, providing a benchmark for comparing established and growing franchise brands.

For Naz’s Halal, earning a place among the Top 400 adds third-party industry recognition to a franchise story already centered on system growth, published financial performance and multi-unit development.

Building the Next Chapter of Naz’s Halal

Naz’s Halal continues to pursue expansion with qualified single-unit and multi-unit franchise operators in available U.S. markets. The company’s franchise strategy combines restaurant-level operating systems, training and support with a development model designed to help qualified franchisees grow thoughtfully within their markets.

The Top 400 recognition provides another independent benchmark of the system’s progress as Naz’s Halal continues building its national franchise presence.
