Taco Franchise US The Taco Maker

The Taco Maker franchise is a Mexican Quick Service Restaurant. We are firmly seated as a leader in the Mexican QSR segment of an international franchise system with outlets in the United States, Latin American, and the Far East.

Our Food Brands....

We offer a winning combination of food brands that include The Taco Maker, Jake's Over the Top, and Mayan Jamma Juice - all available as part of the same outlet. We have locations in a variety of outlet types, with design formats to meet almost every need.

Our facilities...

Our facilities are designed to reflect specific motifs with state-of-the-art materials and equipment. All of this sets us apart from the competition. The creation of fine foods starts with kitchen and production lines that are clean and organized in such a way as to encourage efficiency and minimize waste.

Franchise Opportunities are Available!

The diversity of our multiple-brand outlets make them the most successful opportunities available. Single-concept outlets are available when restrictive elements exist because of covenants or prior exclusivity on competing products. We have the ability to go into spaces from 400 square feet to 3500 square feet in traditional freestanding units, convenience stores, shopping malls, food courts, airports, and in-line strip centers, all of which have all proven their success.
