Lake
Forest, CA – May 2018 / Newsmaker Alert / Del
Taco Restaurants, Inc. (NASDAQ: TACO), the nation’s second leading
Mexican quick service restaurant*
(MQSR), turns customers into raving fans with each taste of Del Taco’s
freshly prepared Mexican and American favorites. While Del Taco currently
has two restaurants opened in Florida, and with 10 more locations to open
over the next several years, the brand sees Orlando as one of its next
major expansion areas.
As
part of the state-wide franchising growth initiative, Laura Tanaka, Del
Taco’s director of franchise development, will be hosting in-market meetings
in Orlando the week of June 4th, 2018. Orlando-area multi-unit operators
interested in expanding their portfolio with an industry-leading brand
with 18 consecutive quarters of system wide same-store sales increases
can meet with Tanaka to learn more.

The
brand is also offering an incentive to new franchisees who commit to opening
a minimum of five Del Taco restaurants in a new market within a specified
time frame. Designed to attract franchisees with an appetite for multi-unit
expansion, the incentives include discounted initial fees and reduced royalties
for up to three years, aiding unit-level profitability early on in the
initial entrance phase of development in a new market.
Del
Taco presents enormous growth potential for experienced multi-unit operators
looking to diversify their business portfolio. The iconic west coast brand
currently has more than 560 locations in 14 states and with opportunities
to grow across Orlando and the Southeastern markets, there is no better
time to join Del Taco.
“From
our culinary and marketing teams to our operations and franchise executives,
the entire Del Taco leadership group is guided by our focus on unit-level
economics, providing the blueprint for success,” said Tanaka. “Additionally,
our working kitchens and a wide range of value, mid-tier and premium products
designed to appeal to consumers across multiple dayparts and occasions
are a competitive advantage that resonate with consumers regardless of
market.”

interested in taking advantage of the company’s tremendous growth potential
and broad base consumer appeal can learn more about Del Taco’s franchising
opportunities by contacting Tanaka at ltanaka@deltaco.com
