El Pollo Loco promotes new executive team
April 26, 2007
IRVINE, Calif. — El Pollo Loco has promoted five members of its management team who helped the growing chain open 26 new locations last year.
John Phillips was promoted to vice president of Franchise Restaurant Opening Group, a strategic program that supports new franchisees throughout the El Pollo Loco expansion process; Mark Hardison was promoted to vice president of marketing; Julie Weeks to vice president of communications; Patsy Estis to vice president of human resources; and Mark Landouw to director of operations services.
El Pollo Loco heightened its franchise expansion plans in 2005 with the introduction of a new restaurant prototype, designed to have broad demographic appeal and flexibility to drive development outside of its core West Coast market. Last year, El Pollo Loco continued its growth with the opening of nine company-owned and 17 franchised restaurants, including new restaurants in Chicago and Connecticut.
