John Fuller Named CBTL C.E.O.

John Fuller was named president and c.e.o. of The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf in September.

Fuller, who was president and c.e.o. of The Johnny Rockets Group, will operate the oldest and largest privately held coffee and tea retailer in the US. “Being appointed to lead The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf into a new era of growth and innovation is something I take great pride in,” said Fuller. “I’ll be working closely with the management team to increase our existing sales and stores base, support our franchisees, deliver outstanding product quality and most importantly, provide our customers with an overall great experience, keeping the company’s rich heritage alive and thriving.”

The company, which operates more than 1,000 stores in 30 countries, recently announced plans to add 700 new stores in China. In May CBTL opened its first outlets in Japan.
