Chief Restaurant and Chief Technology Officer Add 50 Years of Combined Industry Experience to Fast-Casual Brands

April 11, 2023 // Franchising.com // LAS VEGAS - Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop and Wing Zone announced today the hiring of industry veterans Michael Meche as Chief Restaurant Officer and Scott Wessel as Chief Technology Officer.

Meche comes from 30 years spent working with one of the nation’s most successful pizza companies, Papa Johns, where his most recent role was serving as their Head of Franchise Operations. He spearheaded the continued growth and development of that franchise. He now looks forward to supporting this new family of restaurants and their franchisees.

Wessel is a seasoned and very accomplished hospitality technology executive with more than 20 years’ experience in providing direction for large technological, infrastructure, application, data, and digital environments. He was most recently a Senior Vice President / Chief Information Officer at MGM Resorts International, which includes iconic resorts such as Bellagio, MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, Borgata, and more.

Both Meche and Wessel are united in their goals for the immediate future. Their shared hope is to drive revenue and innovation, support the growing needs of the franchise system, develop an infrastructure capable of withstanding the widespread expansion of both brands, and help Capriotti’s and Wing Zone to remain ahead of the competition in their automation, guest experience, and culinary creativity.

“The expansion of our C-suite is meant to signal more than just the growth of our internal operations. It’s representative of the team we’re building to oversee and ensure that the culture, quality, and commitment of the Capriotti’s and Wing Zone brand’s remain uniform and unwavering,” said David Bloom, Chief Development and Operating Officer for Capriotti’s and Wing Zone.

Founded in 1976, Capriotti’s is most famous for its 40-year nightly tradition of slow-roasting whole, all-natural turkeys in-house and hand-shredding them each morning to feature in a variety of subs. This includes The Bobbie made with homemade turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, and mayo on a soft roll. Founded in 1993, Wing Zone is an international fast-casual restaurant franchise known for its cooked-to-order, flavor-fused chicken wings, and tenders.
