Jack in the Box is buying Del Taco for $575 million
CNN
Three years after ditching Qdoba Mexican Eats, Jack in the Box is scooping up Del Taco in a $575 million deal.
The deal, which is expected to close early next year, doubles down on Jack in the Box's success with tacos. Jack in the Box serves an eclectic array of food from burgers to egg rolls, but the chain has made something of a name for itself with its tacos — and despite getting mixed reviews, they've long been a top-selling item for the brand.
Del Taco could be seen as the reverse: It specializes in tacos, quesadillas and other American-style Mexican fare, but it also sells American dishes like burgers.
