Sun Holdings, Inc. is a
restaurant franchise owner company that owns over 400 locations in four
separate states. The franchises they own includes Burger King, Arby’s,
Popeye’s, Krispy Kreme, Cici’s Pizza, Golden Corral, and various restaurants in
different airports. Since their inception in 1997 they have grown immensely and
are now the 8th largest restaurant franchise owner in the United
States. With so much success comes a lot of responsibility and opportunities to
do good deeds. Sun Holdings, Inc. has taken full advantage of those
opportunities, and in correlation with plans to obtain more franchises, they
plan to continue to do good for others.
In 2014 alone their Golden Corral
franchises gave 15,000 free meals to veterans. This wasn’t seen as an
opportunity to take advantage of by Sun Holdings, Inc, instead, this was seen
as a necessary act.
Additionally in 2014, Sun
Holdings, Inc. gave away over 4 million free kids meals. All of Sun Holdings,
Inc.’s franchises took part in this deed. There is a disproportionate
population in the United States who live below the poverty line and consist of
families with children, who struggle to put food on the table. Giving to
families in need is a necessary act that more large corporations should take
part in. Sun Holdings, Inc., gladly uses its resources to provide necessary
food to growing children.
Guillermo Perales is the CEO and
President of Sun Holdings, Inc. He has been recognized one of the Most
Influential Community Leaders in the Latino Community by the Latino Leaders magazine. He continues
to find ways to give back to communities that have given him so much.
