Taco Bell
Another Yum! Brands company, Taco Bell serves Mexican-ish cuisine and value menu food and has approximately two billion customers each year. Glen Bell founded Taco Bell in Downey, California in 1962. He had run a hot dog stand before this and had seen the Mexican restaurant beside him make more money than he did, so he decided to try Mexican-inspired food. “Taco Tia” was the name he gave to his first Taco Bell and he based his food off of the neighboring stand’s recipes. Taco Bell expanded quickly, but it has announced cutbacks in 2020.

TGI Friday’s
Thank Goodness It’s Friday or TGI Fridays has around 870 locations all over the world and operates practically everywhere except in sub-Saharan Africa. Its founders are Alan Stillman and Daniel Scoggin, who opened the first restaurant in New York City. Its headquarters has been moved to Dallas, Texas, though the casual dining restaurant is still everywhere. At the time, the chain was known for the red-and-white soccer shirts its employees wore and in some locations, the uniform is still common.
