As reported by&nbsp;<a href="http://www.franchisetimes.com/November-December-2016/Four-fast-casual-concepts-enter-US/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=franchise-times-four-fast-casual-concepts-enter-us-7297" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration:none;" target="_blank">Franchise Times</a>, here is a breakdown of the concepts and their rivals. 

Paris Baguette 
Even with the success of their 3,700 plus locations abroad, primarily in South Korea, &ldquo;the French bakery and cafe concept is confident it can achieve even greater success expanding in the U.S. than any other country.&rdquo; A few&nbsp;rivals include 85 degrees, Panera and Corner Bakery. 

Burgerim 
Burgerim is all about the mini burger. They&rsquo;re expanding to U.S. cities such as Florida, Tennessee, Texas, Colorado and Nevada. Burgerim sets themselves apart from rivals &ldquo;by offering 12 different flavors of mini gourmet burgers, each with unique ingredients built into the patty. Plus, the franchise sells alcohol and offers delivery, creating additional revenue streams.&rdquo;

Vapiano 
This upscale pasta and pizza bar is looking to double their locations in the U.S. by 2018. &ldquo;The U.S. is the biggest restaurant consumer country in the world,&rdquo; says CEO Carlos Politano. They&rsquo;re addressing the challenge of expensive real estate by opening more locations in smaller suburbs, especially in and around Chicago.

Spoleto 
According to Franchise Times, Spoleto says they&rsquo;ve already received over 100 inquiries from potential franchisees in the U.S. President and CEO John Velasquez says, &ldquo;We feel really good that once we turn the green light on for franchising, we&rsquo;ll probably be able to develop a large number of stores around the country.&rdquo;
