Houston — A subsidiary of RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. has named Shannon Glaser as vice president of franchise and concept development of the fast-growing Bombshells Restaurant & Bar chain. She joins the company from Twin Peaks.
With more than 15 years of experience in all aspects of retail franchising, Glaser most recently was senior director of franchise and development of the 78-unit Twin Peaks sports bar restaurant chain.
During her 6 and a half years at Twin Peaks, Glaser sold more than 120 franchise commitments. To date, 50 of these units have opened.
“We are delighted to have Shannon join us,” says Eric Langan, RCI’s president and CEO. “With her proven track record, we are confident she will reach our goal of 80 to 100 Bombshells franchise units over the next 5-10 years.”
“Shannon is the next step in Bombshells’ growth,” says David Simmons, director of restaurant operations. “She is highly respected amongst her peers in the industry as an innovative leader with high integrity.”
Bombshells is the first military-themed chain in the sports bar/casual dining segment. It features a hangar-like design, “Bombshells Girls” with military inspired uniforms, a full bar, a scratch kitchen, flat screen TVs, DJs and live music and a huge patio.
