Giggles N’ Hugs, Inc. (GIGL) Management Team Includes Key Contributors to Growth of California Pizza Kitchen and Wolfgang Puck Restaurants

Experience is an invaluable asset. In business and life in general, there is no substitute for relevant experience. Education is very important, but a seasoned veteran with a wealth of time doing the various tasks associated with running a successful business and the connections that come with someone like this are indispensable. Giggles N’ Hugs, Inc. (OTCQB: GIGL) has this type of management experience steering its ship through the ‘Restaurant Channel’, so to speak. Both President John Kaufman and CFO Phillip Gay have impressive track records of success that warrant attention and praise.

John Kaufman was the COO of California Pizza Kitchen when its founders only had two locations. He was responsible for helping it grow from two locations to more than 100 locations before Pepsico, Inc. (NYSE: PEP) acquired it. Once that successful venture was complete, he was hired as the President of Koo Koo Roo Chicken, one of the fastest growing chicken franchises on the west coast.

An operational, creative guru like John Kaufman could not do it without someone to balance the books and spearhead the all important numbers aspect of a successful business. Phillip Gay was the CFO of California Pizza Kitchen and then later was CFO of the incredibly popular, high-end Wolfgang Puck Restaurants franchise, where he eventually became the CEO.

Giggles N’ Hugs is a first-of-its-kind, award-winning family restaurant and play space that combines organic gourmet food with engaging play elements for children, with a 2,500-square-foot play space in the middle of the restaurant. The concept is similar to Chuck E. Cheese, but Giggles N’ Hugs offers a unique, healthier, high-end version for health conscious parents and families. Parents eat and relax while the kids have an incredible time playing in the custom-made play area with giant climbers, dragons, castles, pirate ship slides and swings and a multitude of other toys.

In addition to nightly shows and concerts, every 30 minutes Giggles N’ Hugs provides an activity such as face painting, disco dance parties, karaoke, games, arts and crafts, and much more. Giggles N’ Hugs has been voted the No. 1 family restaurant, No. 1 birthday party place, and the No. 1 indoor play space in all of Los Angeles, and it has attracted a star-studded list of customers including Sandra Bullock, Heidi Klum, Jessica Alba, Halle Berry, Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, Dennis Quaid, Mark Wahlberg, Adam Sandler, Dustin Hoffman and many more.
