With All These Twisted Minds About Twist Potato, What Happens to the Potato Fries?

Conspicuously absent from the best food cart expo this year, the Food and Drinks 2010 Expo at the WTC, is Potato Corner, the company that started the potato craze. How come?

I saw JC Fran with its supermarket of franchise ideas display Potato Loops.

I saw another potato fries outfit, an older one but with a spiffed up cart, Potato Madness.

I think products of Potato franchises are getting too expensive. Potato Corner at Waltermart North EDSA pulled-out after a year--maybe because an order of fries is now P36 or P48. Twistix is selling at P50/P70 an order. You have to think P50 will get you a Mang Inasal Chicken Rice Meal for P49, Jollibee's Lumpia Shanghai 5pcs with Rice is P39 and Chowking's Rice in a box Chao Fan at P39. Siomai order is at P25.

  2. hi cecille. potato loops is under the umbrella of JC Fran (noodle house, red ninja etc). for contact tel, suggest you get hold of a copy of entrepreneur phil mag--they have ads on the back portion of the mag.

  3. Note: tornado potato concepts like this can tend to be "makunat" if it takes too long from preparation (slicing) to serving (fried then long wait then buyer buys).
