Transcript | The Marriott premium on quality is reflected in the new Bob's Big Boy at Anaheim, California. added to the service restaurant in Bethesda,Maryland. These features have increased sales and profits at this unit. Five unprofitable service restaurants were closed in 1969, and stimulating changes of the type made at Bethesda are being considered for certain others. Hot Shoppes, however, is where the company got its start, and most of these restaurants today are highly-successful, large-volume operations in irreplaceable locations. Marriott continues to grow in Food Service Management. Eleven new hospital, industrial and school accounts were added in 1969 for a 25 per cent increase over the year before. The company manages operations tailored to specific needs, including cafeterias, snack bars, and executive dining rooms. One of the more interesting new accounts is a motel and cafeteria operation at Boston Children's Hospital. Volume increased in toll road facilities in New York, Florida and Delaware, reflecting greater auto travel. An expansion of facilities in Florida should be ready for this winter's tourist traffic. The terminal restaurant acquired at San Juan International Airport has been completely remodeled and expanded by more than three times to meet future travel demands posed by the new 747 "jumbo jet." San Juan will be one of the first airports to receive this new large airplane. A newly-established Vending Division completed its first full year of operation with five major routes in the Washington, D. C. area. |
