El Pollo Loco Franchise Opportunities – History

El Pollo Loco began as a roadside chicken stand opened by Juan Francisco Ochoa in the small town of Guasave, Mexico, on the Pacific Coast, featuring a simple menu of fresh chicken marinated in special herbs, spices and citrus juices, an Ochoa family recipe, then flame-grilled to perfection. The restaurant quickly became a local favorite and grew to several locations in Northern Mexico. In 1980, the first El Pollo Loco opened in Los Angeles.

In 1983, the American restaurants in the chain were acquired by Denny’s, leaving the Ochoas to run the Mexican chain. The chain has switched ownership twice since and is now owned by Trimaran Capital Partners, since 2005. The brand numbers more than 450 locations.
