Central kitchens allow businesses to prepare meal ingredients or dishes to distribute to their restaurants. Taco Palenque said this will help the Mexican food chain to grow.

The nearly 59,000-square-foot central kitchen will be renovated from an existing warehouse at 8743 Highway 151 on the West Side.

The restaurant chain has 41 locations in Texas and Mexico, including 11 in the Alamo City area. Taco Palenque said the kitchen will be distributing to all locations.

The kitchen will not be open to the public.
