Restaurants Operators Inc., owners of the Olive Garden franchise in Puerto Rico, announced Wednesday the start of construction of its third restaurant, representing a $3 million investment in the northern town of Barceloneta.
More than 150,000 people sat down for an Italian meal at Puerto Rico’s first Olive Garden restaurant during its first three months of operations, shattering world records for the chain worldwide, franchisee Restaurant Operators Inc. said Wednesday.
Following a $200,000 investment, the Subway restaurant chain recently opened eight stores in Puerto Rico under the new “Metro décor” prototype, whose goal is to provide a nicer ambiance for customers while responding to public preferences and current industry trends, company officials said Tuesday.
