JAH Realty LP (“JAH Realty”) is pleased to announce the Grand Opening of Torchy’s Tacos at the Shops at Stonebriar in Frisco, Texas. The shopping center is located along Preston Road just north of Hwy 121 and is supported by the regional draw of Stonebriar Centre, one of the top malls in the metroplex. “We are already seeing Torchy’s re-activate this portion of the center and are grateful for our continued partnership with this incredible brand.” said William Rosatti, at JAH Realty.
Since acquiring the Shops at Stonebriar in 2017, JAH Realty has executed 10 new leases resulting in 77,697 square feet of net absorption. At this time, the shopping center is fully leased. Frisco, Texas continues to experience explosive growth and the company plans to hold the asset for the foreseeable future. This is consistent with JAH Realty’s long term investment strategy, which has been implemented with tremendous success since 1973.
Torchy’s Tacos started in 2006 with a mobile trailer, a little red Vespa in Austin, Texas, and a man with a passion for good food. The founder, Michael Rypka, left an executive chef position to chase his dreams by investing everything he had into Torchy’s Tacos. With a new, experimental menu ready to serve but no mouths to feed, Rypka jumped on his Vespa and started throwing out samples in an attempt to draw customers to his trailer. Before he knew it, people were rallying beside the taco stand hollering, “damn these tacos are good!” and thus, Torchy’s legacy began. Today, Torchy’s Tacos operates over 70 locations throughout the United States.
