Del Taco

Del Taco was created in the 60ies as an inspired Mexican restaurant that also produces an interesting combo of burgers and fries. In the west and southwest areas, it is unbelievably famous and has 564 restaurants in total. However, by 2020, less common areas are expected to be shut down. They want to go further into franchising, too. It was sold in 2015 as a public corporation to Tax Purchase. Their plans for East expansion were not unbelievably successful but still produce a large turnover, making Taco Bell a worthy competitor.
