Taco Time is a fast-food restaurant, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Kahala Corporation of Scottsdale, Arizona. The chain was founded in Eugene, Oregon in 1960 by Ron Fraedrick, who opened the first restaurant adjacent to his alma mater, the University of Oregon. In 1962, the first TacoTime franchise opened in Tacoma, Washington. By the end of the decade, the company had reached a total of 48 restaurants in seven Western states. In 1978, the company franchised its first international restaurant, in Lethbridge, Alberta. Taco Time has since expanded, now holding 225 franchises in the United States, as well as over 75 others in Canada and Japan.

In 2003, the company was bought by restaurant holding company Kahala Corporation [1], which continues to operate the franchise (in addition to several other fast food chains).
