Franchisor equipment standards translated into a permit-ready local design.
For a Golden Chick franchise on FM 1960 in Humble, QD Design engineered the full MEP package: Type I kitchen hood exhaust with makeup air for the open-flame broiler and fryer line, three-phase electrical for the cooking battery and refrigeration, and grease-waste plumbing with interceptor sizing. Franchise QSR work rewards standardization — QD Design adapts the franchisor's equipment package to each local jurisdiction's amendments and gets it permitted.
