Del Taco is an American Mexican inspired restaurant with locations predominantly in the Southern and Western parts of the country. Del Taco has approximately 600 locations in 16 states. The restaurants are situated in high traffic areas, which makes them highly sought-after properties. The NNN lease term is usually 20 years with attractive rental escalations of 10% every five years. Del Taco first grew popular in California before expanding to its current multistate footprint. Now, the Mexican quick-service restaurant (QSR) brand is executing a plan for growth that goes beyond the QSR market. Not only did the chain recently hold a double grand opening for locations inside TA Express sites in Arizona, but it's also making long-term plans for the convenience channel. The company currently has 12 Del Taco units in operation inside c-stores and travel plazas, with four more in development. For buyers and sellers of retail real estate assets, knowing which companies are in a growth phase and how their real estate requirements evolve is a crucial step to wise investing. Check out NNN Trends, where investors can access continuously updated national cap rates, comparable sales, and consumer traffic for dozens of retail net lease tenants. https://bit.ly/3VYH9IY #CRE #QSR #fastfood #creretail #commercialrealestate #netlease

Former Krispy Kreme CEO Mike Tattersfield refers to the transformation of the Company as a shift from #doughnut bakery to a “doughnut logistics company.” And #logistics will be ever more important in light of the expanded partnership between Krispy Kreme and McDonald's that was revealed last week. By 2026 Krispy Kreme doughnuts will be available for sale in all U.S. McDonald’s restaurants - and a test of Krispy Kreme's 'hub and spoke' real estate model. Krispy Kreme's domestic and international hubs already serve thousands of access points and generate far more revenue than most of its #QSR peers. But what additional #realestate will #KrispyKreme need to produce and deliver doughnuts to all 14,000+ #McDonald’s restaurants throughout the country? In other words...what is the best real estate for a doughnut hub? ⬇

Eighties and nineties nostalgia was dealt a gut punch earlier this month when nearly 100 Red Lobster locations abruptly went dark amid the company’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing. Restaurants that took the U.S. by storm 30 to 40 years ago are beginning to drop like flies after a whirlwind past few years that forced rapid innovation in response to evolving consumer demands. At least 12 of the nation’s biggest casual chains plan to scale back their portfolios this year, and while reasons behind the reductions vary, the potential real estate impacts grow more layered as closures bloom. The turnover of space is expected to create opportunities in retail markets where rapid population growth has led to historically low levels of vacancy. But in less desirable markets, the empty carcasses of once-beloved chain restaurants will be harder to reckon with. Around 300 Applebee’s locations have closed since 2017, with up to 35 more planned for this year. TGI Friday’s announced the closure of 36 underperforming restaurants in January, and while rumors of Chilis’ demise have proven untrue, the chain did throw in the towel on 16 struggling branches in 2023.There are 311 casual restaurant locations on the market nationwide.People aren’t looking for legacy brands. They are looking for smaller, independent, newer concepts to create excitement. The good news from a commercial real estate perspective is there is an acute shortage of second-generation restaurant spaces. There will be a number of tenants eager to backfill the spaces. #cre #commercialrealestate #Commercialrealestateadviser #commercialproperty #retailrealestate
