Jack in the Box was founded in 1951 in San Diego, California, by Robert O. Peterson, and introduced the nation’s first major drive-thru hamburger chain. Known for its quirky branding and diverse menu—from burgers to tacos to breakfast—Jack in the Box built a strong following, especially in the western and southwestern U.S. The company is publicly traded under Jack in the Box Inc., which also owns Del Taco, and continues to expand through a mix of corporate and franchised stores.
