Mr. Puffs Corporate Office

Mr. Puffs was founded in 2004 in Montreal, Canada, by Billy Siounis. The company offers a dessert bar, serving puffs with various toppings, ice cream, coffee, and coffee drinks.

Puffs are similar to donut holes, made with simple ingredients such as flour, water, and cinnamon. Vegan-based puffs are also available.

Franchising began in 2006. Starting with a single location, Mr. Puffs now has more than 20 international locations, with the newest store opening in Florida.

Mr. Puffs has continued to expand across Canada and the USA, despite the coronavirus pandemic. In 2020, Uber Eats announced that its most ordered food in Quebec was Mr. Puffs.

Apparently, not everyone is a fan of Mr. Puffs. In February 2018, someone tried to set fire to a Mr. Puffs location in Canada. Luckily, the store was closed and there were no injuries.

Mr. Puffs maintains a corporate office in Blainville, Quebec, Canada.

Landry’s Corporate Office

Brothers Phil and Floyd Landry began their business by opening cajun seafood restaurants in the Houston, Texas, area in 1980.

Tilman Fertitta became CEO and quickly began standardizing the appearance and menus of the restaurants; removing the Cajun spicing from most dishes and scrubbing away the unique interior of Willie G’s.

In 2010, Landry’s, Inc., acquired three new restaurants: Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, Claim Jumper, and The Oceanaire, a national collection of seafood restaurants, known for flying in fresh fish daily.

In 2011, Landry’s bought two more restaurants, McCormick & Schmick’s Seafood, and Morton’s The Steakhouse.

In 2012, the company expanded its entertainment division, opening the Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier.

Today, Landry’s is an American, privately owned, multi-brand dining, hospitality, entertainment, and gaming corporation. The company owns and operates more than 600 restaurants, hotels, casinos, and entertainment destinations in 35 US states as well as the District of Columbia. The company also owns and operates numerous international locations.

First Watch Cafe Corporate Office

First Watch Cafe was founded in 1983 by Ken Pendery and John Sullivan. The name refers to the first shift in nautical terms and it seems appropriate since the restaurant is only open between 7 AM and 2:30 PM.

The company has grown substantially, mainly through the acquisition of other restaurant chains.

In 2014, First Watch bought The Good Egg, which is located in Arizona. As of 2021, 18 of The Good Egg restaurants have been converted into First Watch restaurants.

In May 2015, the company acquired the Colorado-based Egg & I Restaurants chain. The Egg & I has 114 eateries across twenty states. It is unknown if all Egg & I restaurants will be rebranded as First Watch restaurants.

First Watch has a large presence in Florida, Texas, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Colorado, and Arizona. First Watch and the Egg & I restaurants serve breakfast, brunch, and lunch and offer a wide variety of food items.

In October 2021, the restaurant chain went public on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol FWRG.

In March 2023, the company reported a strong 2022 report and an even stronger 2023 outlook.

Rouses Supermarket Corporate Office

J.P. Rouse founded his first supermarket in Thibodaux, Louisiana, in 1923. Initially named City Produce Company, Rouse purchased produce from local farmers and shipped the excess around the US.

In 2013, Rouses expanded into Alabama by taking ownership of six Belle Foods stores in the Mobile area.

In 2016, Rouses acquired LeBlanc’s Food Stores, expanding its presence in the metro Baton Rouge, Louisiana, area with 9 additional locations.

All LeBlanc’s Food Stores were rebranded as Rouses Markets.

Rouses continue to expand. In January 2023, Rouses planned to open a new Bilioxi, Mississippi, location within days.

In a local news media post, Rouses was listed as the favorite market of locals living in the state of Louisiana.

Freshly Corporate Office

Michael Wystrach and Carter Comstock founded Freshly in 2012. Wystrach wanted to lose weight in a healthy manner and was frustrated that he was unable to find healthy foods that were tasty, healthy, and easy to make.

Comstock was influenced by his 4-H program and was looking for sustainability and a minimal amount of food waste.

Freshly seeks to combine both founders’ wishes.

Freshly is a New York based subscription delivery company that delivers one million meals per week.

In 2020 Freshly was acquired by Nestle for US$1.5 billion. It appears that Nestle intends to change the name since Freshly announced that they would no longer sell products after January 2023.

While Nestle may halt home delivery, it appears that it will soon have Freshly frozen meals available soon.

At this writing, Freshly maintains a corporate office in New York, New York.
