Facilities : Air conditioned; utilizes seating and dining furniture.
Investment Required : P1.6M to P2M

The Goto King Independent Kiosk (Independent) is the largest version of kiosk outlets.

And unlike the cart, it is permanent and may not be moved from one place to another.

Investment Required : Php 500-600K
Brief Description :

The Goto King Cart caters to people who are always ‘on the go’.They are customers who belong to the mobile and transient crowd. It can easily be located in areas where there are limited dining spaces like in mall sections (hallways, corridors, arcades, supermarkets, etc.), gas stations, convenience stores, bus terminals, schools and canteens. Whenever necessary, it is the only store type that can be physically transferred from one location to another since it does not form part of a permanent structure.
