Kebab, a dish of Turkish origin, consists of thin slices of meat (lamb, beef, chicken, etc.) marinated in a subtle blend of olive oil, herbs and spices.then cooked on a spit before being served hot, either on a plate with accompaniments, or as a sandwich wrapped in pita bread or flatbread.
French tacos, the new darling of French fast food that appeared in the suburbs in the 2010s, are made from a thick wheat tortilla topped with French fries, one or more meats (breaded escalope, merguez, chicken, etc.) and generously topped with a sauce.) and generously topped with a cheese sauce (raclette, chèvre, mozzarella, etc.).
The popularity of these nomadic meal formats is now indisputable: in France, 11 kebabs are consumed every second - that's 350 million a year - and the doner ranks as the 3ᵉ most ordered dish on delivery platforms, just behind pizza and the burger. In terms of patronage, 47% of French people visit a taco/kebab establishment at least occasionally, while 30% do so once a month and 14% at least once a week.
In terms of investment, opening a taco or kebab outlet requires a budget of between €50,000 and €150,000, depending on the location and standard of the premises. In an increasingly competitive sector, 35% of brands opted for franchising in 2024, compared with 65% of independents: this choice offers immediate recognition, a proven concept and ongoing support, while independents rely on creativity andlocal identity to stand out from the crowd.
This market study will analyze consumer dynamics, business models (independent vs. franchise), as well as key success factors - from the speed and convenience of the service to the quality of the product. and convenience of service to customized recipes - in order to identify the best opportunities for launching or expanding in the French kebab and French taco market.
