History of Churro Station> Churro Station was founded in 2003 by Melanie Farkas, who brainstormed the idea of opening a “churreria” after a trip to Mexico in 2002.  She soon invited her close, long-time friend, Latina Zoila Aldana to join her in making the dream a delicious reality.  Zoila grew up in her mother’s restaurant business in Guatemala, and was excited to return to the business she had always loved best—serving great, fresh food to eager, happy customers.

Melanie tasted her first churro on a trip to Mexico in the early 1980s.  She became enchanted with the art of churro-making while watching an elderly man as he made fresh, hot churros all evening long in the middle of the plaza.  Every year after that, she sought out the best churros in different cities all over Mexico and Spain, once taking a two-hour journey by bus to the outskirts of Cancun in order to sample the very best churros in the area.  She returned to the U.S. determined to open her own churreria.

After a year’s worth of research and many churro-tasting trips, Melanie searched the world over, seeking the perfect churro-making machine as well as the best, most authentic churro recipe she could find.  She and Zoila re-worked the recipe until they were confident that they could produce the best churro in America.  The friends opened the 800-square foot prototype store in San Rafael in 2003.

“Many of our customers are far away from their families and I love that Churro Station reminds them of home.” -Melanie

Discover the power of Wholesale!> One thing you may not know about Churro Station is that we sell wholesale in addition to retail. Unlike other franchises, Churro Station sells its staple product, the Churro to a variety of schools, markets, amusement parks, movie theaters, caterers and restaurants.

The possibilities of wholesale are endless. Most importantly wholesale provides the franchise owner with an additional stream of revenue outside one’s four walls.

No wholesale experience? No problem. Churro Station offers extensive training and on-going support. Contact us today to learn more about our retail and wholesale business, a franchise package sure to capture your attention!

OUR MISSION STATEMENT

This business was created for you, the person who has the "ganas", the desire to succeed. It is our mission to do whatever we can to help you reach for that success.

We understand our product, our customers and what makes them happy. Many of our customers are far away from their homes. We try to give them a bit of those memories of home.

For those who are not far from home, we proudly offer unique products that we know you and all your customers will love-delightful foods in a setting that only Churro Station can offer.

We strive for perfection: only perfect Churros y chocolate will be served; only a liquado made with ripe fruit will be offered; each sandwich is freshly made to satisfy your appetite.

If this sounds good to you, please let us know!

"There's a $4 billion Latino food and beverage market out there. We're giving people a way to get in on that opportunity for a relatively small investment with a food that everybody loves and isn't widely available", says Melanie Farkas, Founder & CEO (QSR magazine, April 2006).
