About the Client

Tikka Shack is a fast-casual Indian restaurant chain redefining how America experiences Indian cuisine. With a bold, modern brand and a flavor-forward menu, Tikka Shack bridges the gap between traditional Indian dishes and contemporary American dining. When we first partnered with Tikka Shack, they had 8 locations. Today, they have grown to over 18 locations across the U.S., emerging as a rapidly growing Indian food brand with a strong presence in both urban and suburban markets.

With ambitious goals for brand awareness, location launches, and revenue growth, Tikka Shack looked to us to become their outsourced performance and brand marketing team.
