Mr. Hoffman is a restaurant and hospitality expert with over 30 years of experience leading four of the world’s favorite chains. He is the founder of International Restaurant and Hospitality Consultant Group (“IRHCG”) (www.irhcgroup.com), a highly focused, results-oriented foodservice consulting firm.

Mr. Hoffman was formerly the Vice President of Operations for the global Italian restaurant concept Sbarro, Inc. Building to this role, Mr. Hoffman served as Senior Director of Operations for the North American and Caribbean regions of Hard Rock Café International, where he oversaw a diversified hospitality operation with annual revenues in excess of $420 million. He was instrumental in growing that business toward its eventual $1.2 billion sale. Currently, Mr. Hoffman sits on the board of directors of HT Investments, Inc. Mr. Hoffman earned a Bachelor of Sciences Degree in Business Management and Business Law from Temple University.
