Cheesecake. Matcha. Coffee
Most café franchises fight for the same customers around the same menu. KĒKI, isn’t one of them.
KĒKI, brings Japanese-style cheesecake, ceremonial-grade matcha, Vietnamese-inspired coffee and handcrafted specialty drinks together in one highly distinctive café experience.
Founders Luan Nguyen, Kris Hoang, Van Le, and Chi Tran opened the first KĒKI in Sachse, Texas in 2024. They wanted to bring real Japanese dessert craft to North Texas, baked fresh daily, no shortcuts. Customers found it fast, and kept coming back.
That original café is now the blueprint. KĒKI is opening a limited number of franchise territories, and yours could be one of them.
KĒKI blends dessert and beverage culture into one category-defining concept. That means more reasons for customers to visit, and a sharper edge for franchise owners.
Japanese-style cheesecake, matcha, specialty coffee, teas and signature drinks create an experience that looks and tastes different.
Cheesecake, matcha, and coffee give customers a reason to walk in morning, afternoon, and night, not just at one daypart.
Units run 1,200 to 1,500 square feet, built to open fast.
Recipes, sourcing standards, operating procedures, training and technology give owners a clear framework from day one.
KĒKI is opening its first territories, & ground-floor owners get first pick of the map.
KĒKI looks for owners who love running a business as much as they love the product.

Direct access to the KĒKI team as your business grows.
KĒKI started with a simple belief: dessert should feel like a moment worth savoring. One café, one recipe, and a following built on genuine connection.
That’s the foundation you’re buying into, not just a business plan. A brand people already love, a category nobody else owns, and a window that won’t stay open for long.
Bring the culture. Build the following. Own the category.
