Headquartered in Santa Clarita, California, Vallarta has been operating for 40 years, primarily focused on California’s Latino customer base. It has more than 70 stores in California and continues to expand in the Golden State. The company has already started construction on its first Arizona location and will be pursuing an aggressive growth strategy in the Valley.
