Portillo’s (NASDAQ: PTLO), the fast-casual restaurant concept known
for its menu of unrivaled Chicago-style street food, today
announced the appointments of Keith Correia as Chief Information
Officer (CIO) and Nick Scarpino as Chief Marketing Officer (CMO).
Both leaders will play key roles for the business as Portillo’s
expands and scales nationwide.
“I’m thrilled to welcome Keith and Nick into their new roles as
we drive Portillo’s continued growth,” said Michael Osanloo, CEO
and President. “Keith brings invaluable expertise with a track
record of enabling technology to amplify iconic restaurant brands,
while Nick’s creativity and passion have long been instrumental in
amplifying our beloved brand. With their proven leadership, we are
well-positioned to strengthen our infrastructure, innovate the team
member and guest experience, and strategically expand our footprint
nationwide while preserving Portillo’s authentic Chicago roots and
commitment to quality.”
Mr. Correia joins Portillo’s after serving as Chief Information
Officer at Steak ‘n Shake, where he led a comprehensive technology
revitalization for the nearly 90-year-old American brand. Prior to
that, he held various leadership roles at American Dairy Queen
Corporation, including Vice President of Technology Innovation,
Vice President of Concept Support, and Vice President of
Operations. As Portillo’s first CIO, Mr. Correia will oversee the
expansion of the company’s IT platform and guide the team to
modernize and improve efficiencies across Portillo’s tech platforms
to benefit both team members and guests.
After serving as a Portillo’s cashier while on summer and winter
breaks in high school and college, Mr. Scarpino re-joined the
company in 2015, and brings a proven track record of innovative
marketing strategies to his new role as the company’s first CMO.
With previous leadership experience in digital advertising at
Google, over the past decade Mr. Scarpino assembled Portillo’s
first dedicated marketing team and continues to raise brand
awareness through creative initiatives such as digital marketing
campaigns, interstate tours with the iconic Portillo’s Beef Bus,
and curated events to celebrate new restaurant openings and menu
items. In his new role, Mr. Scarpino’s vision and expertise will
remain instrumental in continuing to elevate the beloved Chicago
brand’s profile as it expands nationwide, while staying true to
Portillo’s rich heritage and commitment to quality.
With these new C-suite appointments, Portillo’s continues to
purposefully build and strengthen its executive leadership team as
the company executes its long-term strategy. Currently operating
more than 80 restaurants, the company is confident in its ability
to scale at an annual growth rate of at least 10% and bring its
concept to new markets across the U.S. In the years ahead,
Portillo’s has a target of opening at least 920 locations,
including 800 full-scale restaurants and 120 smaller units, such as
Portillo’s Pick Up locations and other alternate formats.
