PORT ORANGE, Fla. – Del Taco started in California during the 1960s and has grown to over 500 locations in the U.S. However, it does not have a presence in Volusia County.
Franchisees Ajay and Aman Singh plan to change that, by opening the first Del Taco in Port Orange. It will be at 3815 S. Nova Road.
