Susan Lintonsmith was appointed Global Chief Marketing Officer. Lintonsmith joined Quiznos as U.S. Chief Marketing Officer in 2012 and has led the transition of Quiznos marketing from traditional media to a greater focus on digital and social media as well as the improvement and simplification of the U.S. menu.
In 2015, Quiznos focused on U.S. marketing and operations including a transformation of the supply chain model, testing and launching a simplified menu and rolling out a new POS system to help improve franchisee sales and profits. Consolidating global leadership allows Quiznos to work with both franchisees and master franchisees to align operations and marketing efforts to improve customer service, increase profitability, and drive sales growth.
"As we look to the future growth of Quiznos, we're first and foremost committed to ensuring existing restaurants and franchisees thrive," said Doug Pendergast, Quiznos President and Chief Executive Officer. "Susan and George bring the tenacity and capabilities necessary to align global efforts and return Quiznos to its rightful place as the leader in the premium hot sandwich category."
Denver-based Quiznos is a brand designed for today's busy consumers who are looking for a high quality, tasty, freshly prepared alternative to traditional fast-food restaurants. With locations across the United States and 34 countries, Quiznos is one of the world's largest quick-service restaurant chains and pioneer of the toasted sandwich.
