March 8, 2017

The southeastern U.S. is about to get more Del Taco locations as the concept plans to open franchised and corporate locations in Florida, southern Georgia and the Atlanta area next year.

"Consumers everywhere are asking for a Del Taco in their town," Laura Tanaka, Del Taco's director of franchise development, said in a press release. "Backed by an incredibly loyal following, and with 13 consecutive quarters of systemwide same store sales increases, Del Taco is a brand on the rise and presents enormous growth potential for experienced multi-unit operators looking to diversify their portfolios."

In Florida, Del Taco is partnering with veteran franchisee Angelo Freites and, in Georgia, the concept is partnering with Nishant Patel, according to the release.
