Chair of the Month

The future of Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen depends heavily on staying true to its roots –roots that trace back 40 years to New Orleans.

In November of 2011, Popeyes unveiled its new Global Service Center (headquarters) in Atlanta. Designed to underscore the strategic objectives of the brand, Popeyes wanted a space that reflected and reinforced the company culture and heritage.

Popeyes worked with KPS Group to emphasize Popeyes commitment to these roots. Lead designer John Schneider guided the team. Popeyes CEO Cheryl Bachelder oversaw the team’s work, ensuring the space would reflect Popeyes Louisiana heritage while facilitating collaboration and ideation among Popeyes employees.

By creating an open and inviting workspace, employees now have a greater number of opportunities to work together, brainstorm, and create ideas to drive profits. Profits can more strongly be achieved through product innovations, improving the guest experience, and becoming more aligned with franchisees.

“This state-of-the-art workspace creates an environment that inspires creativity while connecting employees with Popeyes’ rich, Louisiana heritage, with a nod to a bright future,” Bachelder said.
