Legacy brand welcomes new year with a new chapter as seasoned industry pro takes helm<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"HuddleAtlanta, GA\u00a0 (RestaurantNews.com<\/u><\/a>)\u00a0 Huddle House<\/u><\/strong><\/a>, the iconic diner-style brand that serves food from the heart, is kicking off the new year with new leadership designed to fuel its next phase of growth. The company announced the appointment of seasoned restaurant executive Bob Campbell<\/u><\/strong><\/a> as its Brand President. He brings more than 25 years of experience in the casual dining space and will head the concept with a more than 60-year history that is known for its homestyle food without the fuss.<\/p>\n

Campbell\u2019s appointment follows the recent announcement of a new Brand President for sister brand Perkins American Food Co., both under the Ascent Hospitality Management portfolio. These leadership moves reflect the strategic growth vision of Ascent Hospitality Management CEO Paul Damico, who also recently joined the leading franchisor and is laser-focused on strengthening the legacy brands while accelerating expansion.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are delighted to welcome Bob to our leadership team as we build on the strong foundation of the Huddle House brand,\u201d said Paul Damico<\/u><\/strong><\/a>, CEO of Ascent Hospitality Management. \u201cHis deep expertise in multi-unit operations, brand strategy, culture stewardship, and growth planning, combined with his passion for developing high-performing teams, will be instrumental as we guide this iconic family-dining brand into its next chapter of sustained growth and success.\u201d<\/p>\n

A Career Built on Growth and Leadership<\/strong><\/p>\n

Campbell brings a proven track record of operational excellence and brand-building to Huddle House. His career is highlighted by a long-standing tenure with Georgia-based Taco Mac, where he began as a franchisee in 1997, opening his first restaurant in Alpharetta, Georgia. His early success led to the development of three additional locations and, ultimately, a partnership with Taco Mac\u2019s founder.<\/p>\n

Together, they formed Tappan Street Restaurant Group, where Campbell served as CEO and helped scale the business to more than 30 locations.<\/p>\n

His industry leadership has earned notable recognition, including the Georgia Restaurant Association\u2019s Grace Award for Restaurateur of the Year in 2010. Campbell later served as Chairman of the Georgia Restaurant Association and remained on Taco Mac\u2019s board through the brand\u2019s sale in 2017.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am thrilled to join Huddle House and to work alongside Paul and the broader leadership team during this exciting period of transformation,\u201d said Bob Campbell, Brand President of Huddle House. \u201cAs the family-dining landscape continues to evolve, this is a pivotal moment for the brand to build on its heritage while creating new paths to meet guests where they are through relevant experiences, thoughtful growth, and a continued focus on heartfelt hospitality.\u201d<\/p>\n
