Pancheros Mexican Grill Strengthens Leadership Team with New Vice President of Marketing

Fast-casual Mexican Chain Appoints Restaurant Marketing Titan to Executive Roster

September 12, 2018 // Franchising.com // IOWA CITY, IOWA - Behind every great burrito is the team who helped make it and Pancheros Mexican Grill just added a major new ingredient to the brand’s recipe for success - Ryan Murrin.

The fast-casual Mexican restaurant chain announced today that it has appointed experienced restaurant industry marketer Ryan Murrin as vice president of marketing.

Murrin brings more than 15 years of marketing and advertising experience to his new role at Pancheros. Prior to joining Pancheros, he served as the head of advertising, and research at another fast-casual Mexican concept, overseeing the brand’s integrated marketing and media strategy as well as consumer insights, sports sponsorships, direct response and lifecycle marketing initiatives for more than 2,400 of the brand’s restaurant locations.

“As an Iowa native who discovered Pancheros in college, this is a brand I’ve always been passionate about and had a lot heart for,” said Murrin. “Pancheros has built an amazing brand, and I'm honored to be part of the team. I look forward to building insight and data driven marketing programs as the brand continues to grow nationwide.”

Murrin’s addition to the Pancheros team comes at a very exciting time for the brand, as it continues to expand nationwide through its franchising plan to ink multi- and single-unit agreements in several mid-sized markets throughout the Midwest, East Coast, and in areas contiguous to its existing markets.

“Ryan has a tremendous amount of marketing and industry experience that will greatly support us and our franchisees in increasing brand awareness and recognition, loyalty and growth,” said Rodney Anderson, CEO and founder of Pancheros. “We’re excited to see the big things that are certain to come with a player as talented and experienced as Ryan on our team.”

Pancheros stands apart from other big-name burrito concepts because of its quality ingredients, fast service and burritos better built. However, almost anyone would agree the most distinguishing factors for Pancheros are its innovations - the fresh-pressed tortillas and proprietary ingredient mixing spatula, BOB the Tool.

The brand’s pursuit to build the perfect burrito dates back to 1992, when Pancheros founder Rodney Anderson opened the doors to his first restaurant in downtown Iowa City, Iowa. Since then, the brand has grown into 13 states with approximately 70 locations.

About Pancheros

The beginning of Pancheros dates back to 1992 when Rodney Anderson opened the brand’s first restaurant in Iowa City, Iowa. Originally modeled after the Chicago taquerias that Anderson had visited often with his friends during his teenage years, the brand’s pursuit of constructing a better built burrito launched Pancheros into an evolution based on simplicity and fresh-pressed tortillas.

Since it’s humble beginnings, Pancheros has earned a loyal following for redefining the standards of modern burritos by using fresh-pressed tortillas and perfectly-mixed ingredients with the help of BOB the Tool, a unique plastic spatula used to carefully mix ingredients together to create the perfect taste in every bite.
