  • William H. Mullin Jr
    WILLIAM H. MULLIN JR. Taco Bill, Inc. was named by Mary Lou Mullin in 1984, when it became a California Corporation, but it all started much, much earlier. William H. Mullin, or Bill Mullin as known to most everyone and “Taco Bill” by a few, always wanted to be President of his own company. After finishing his B.A. degree at the University of Colorado School of Business he married his college sweetheart, Mary Lou Todd, in 1963. They moved to San Francisco, where Bill sold printed circuit board materials and supplies. That was uneventful and Bill moved to the casualty insurance business and Mary Lou continued her passion, teaching in the primary grades, particularly kindergarten. After five years of insurance, and another move, to So. California, Bill changed from insurance to real estate, while he did site selection and lease negotiations for Pioneer Chicken and Payless Shoes, Mary Lou again found another school district and this time she could use her Spanish! In 1969 they started their family, and Bill decided there was great opportunity in owning your own franchised business in the fast food arena. He started a ten year training program to learn the fast food business top to bottom, by working in the industry. Over the next ten years he worked as site selector, lease and purchase negotiator, Operations Construction Supervisor, Restaurant Manager Trainee, Assistant Manager, General Manager, Regional Training Manager, District Manager and franchise Consultant. He spent five years as Promotion Manager, Marketing Manager, Field Marketing Director, New Concept Development Assistant Manager and Director of Advertising.
