Restaurant Development

This division is headed up by Eleanorjan Green-Welcome.  She is no stranger to the restaurant scene. She brings a depth of management experience to BES from every corner of the industry. A graduate of the Bernard Baruch College Zicklin School of Business, she honed her skills in Brooklyn, NY, managing small, underground boutique restaurants. She soon moved on to managing the celebrity hot-spot Xanadu, a 35,000 sq. ft. restaurant and disco club in New York City. Over the course of her career, Eleanor has served as a General Manager for Western Reserve (Wendy’s), Training Manager for the Country Kitchens, Inc., and Regional Manager for General Mills (Olive Garden and Red Lobster).  After relocating to Atlanta, she built a successful business consultancy serving mostly the club and restaurant niche.
