Pre-Forum Session

Planning for Growth Development and Design Session

Tuesday, June 6, 9:00am – 10:30am
 
Kris Kaffenbarger, VP, Global System Optimization, Franchise and Portfolio Management, will discuss current incentive programs for new builds and remodels, including the new Pacesetter, Groundbreakers, IAs, and Build to Suit programs. He will also discuss Potential Trade Areas that have been identified for development with current franchisees or potential new franchisees.

Steven Derwoed, VP, Global Design & Construction, will discuss the evolution of design from IA remodels to Refresh, Light Touch, and the next generation restaurants, and how these designs improve costs, store operations and the customer experience. Franchisees that are interested in the Pacesetter development incentive potential, have groundbreaker commitments or those who are considering growth as well as their team members who oversee building and remodels are encouraged to attend this session.
 
Note that the brand’s presentation won’t include discussions of individual financial conditions for franchisees. If you are facing financial challenges, we encourage you to contact Abigail Pringle and her team for support and advice.
