Logan County Chamber of Commerce

You may have already met the new managing business partner for the Russellville McDonald’s, but if you haven’t, make a point to go out and talk with Jose Graffe.
Jose, a tall, smart and pleasant man, is the Managing
Business Partner for G&L Management, the new owners of the Russellville
McDonald’s. Jose asked to meet with me recently and I found his story — from
managing McDonald’s stores internationally, to working for “Hamburger
University” to now being part-owner in franchises — fascinating.
Jose and I compared photos of our children, talked about
retail development in Russellville and I marveled at his business plan.G & L Management has purchased two McDonalds in Tennessee and the one here in Russellville. Read more about it in this story by Jim Turner in The Logan Journal: http://www.theloganjournal.com/Stories.aspx?Article=news627
We look forward to working with Jose, who told me he wants
to be as active has he can be in the Logan County Chamber, and we look for big
things from him.
