Vegan Franchise
Open your own Falafoliva as a food truck, kiosk, stand-alone unit or outlet, with our family recipes, our brand and our support.
The opportunity
Bring Falafoliva to your city
Falafoliva started as a family recipe and a food truck on the streets of Lisbon. It has grown into a complete street food brand, with its own menu, identity and way of serving people.
The concept was designed from the start to grow as a chain of fresh, casual Levantine street food, organised like the stations of an old street market. We are now looking for partners to bring it to new cities, in the format that suits each location best.
“Old-street flavours with a twenty-first century twist.”
