Franchise Information www.NauglesTacos.com TM OUR STORY FOR THE PEOPLE Thanks for your interest in becoming a part of America’s next great taco chain! Naugles was born in the 1970’s on the sun-soaked shores of Southern California. Dick Naugle started his restaurant with one simple philosophy for keeping customers happy. “Prepare food fresh. Serve customer fast. Keep place clean.” –Dick Naugle Unrelenting commitment to this statement helped Naugles grow to become one of the largest Mexican chains in the country by the mid 80’s, before being acquired by Del Taco in 1988—to seemingly never be heard from again… …until August of 2006 when Christian Ziebarth, now President, posted a Naugles remembrance page on his Orange County Mexican restaurant blog. Christian wanted Del Taco to bring back Naugles’ menu items and public interest was overwhelming, so Christian began the process of reviving the iconic brand. Eight years, a four-year trademark court case victory over Del Taco, and countless cheers from die-hard fans for Naugles later—NOW the brandTM is back in business! READY FOR GROWTH The fast food restaurant industry has grown steadily since 2010, with the Mexican restaurant segment leading in overall growth. Thanks to a category-wide explosion of innovative recipes and quality ingredients to satisfy the evolving taste buds of consumers, this segment has played an integral role in the expansion of QSR industry sales. MARKET POSITIONING Our long history of great food, low prices, and restaurant innovation, along with our modern approach to sourcing all-natural ingredients without sacrificing the flavors Naugles’ customers know and love, have uniquely positioned us to capture significant market share. Our momentum is growing with our ability to offer our classic Mexican and American menu, served in a casual dining room and from 24-hour drive-thru service windows. With a recognizable brand and high-quality food offered at affordable prices, we are committed to capturing market share and filling the void for authentic Mexican food establishments.
