Quick Service - Health Conscience Restaurants Poised to Lead Fast-Food Industry Boom
MIAMI, Florida, July 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
GRILLiT Inc. (OTC: GRLT) (the "Company") announced earlier this week it has established a $3 Million line of credit with TCA Global Credit Master Fund. The Company has already received an initial drawdown of $250,000. GRILLiT intends on using the line of credit to execute its plans for expansion and to fund marketing and branding campaigns.
Last year, restaurant sales in the United States increased 4 percent to $425.6 billion, and sales are expected to again increase by 3.8 percent in 2013. According to MarketLine, the world fast-food industry is expected to generate nearly $240 billion in 2014, with the quick-service segment accounting for 71 percent of the overall market value. The Americas account for nearly half of the overall global market share.
GRILLiT CEO Raymond Dias has stated he believes TCA Global Credit to be a "reliable financial partner" as the company aims to take advantage of the rapidly growing quick-service restaurant industry. 'This access to capital will greatly enhance our ability to expand our operations," said Dias.
In other recent news, GRILLiT also announced the appointment of Mr. Ghazi Hajj as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and elected as the Chairman of its Board of Directors. Mr. Hajj is a renowned leader in the fast casual and quick service restaurant industry, as he features a resume that includes over 23 years of managing experience at companies including Salad Creations, Quiznos, Chicken Kitchen and Little Caesars.
