Popeyes appoints director of acquisitions and estates
Popeyes has appointed Peter Gibson as director of acquisitions and estates.
The news comes as the chicken QSR brand works to double its UK network of stores by opening over 30 new locations by the end of this year.
Gibson joins from Chicken Shop where he was responsible for the restaurant group’s property function for the past two years as property director. His previous roles include property director at Flat Iron and head of property acquisitions and asset management at Nando’s.
Tom Byng, chief development officer at Popeyes, said: “We are delighted to welcome Peter to Popeyes to lead our property acquisition strategy. His experience in the hospitality industry and proven track record of helping some of the biggest restaurant groups across the UK grow makes him the ideal person to take on this important role as we look ahead to an exciting year for Popeyes.”
