The KFC restaurant at 4118 Mexico Road in St. Peters has been named “Best of the Best” in KFC operations and customer service. The restaurant is owned and operated by Hecht’s Mgmt. Co., Inc. of St. Charles and managed by General Manager, Barb Wenzara and Manager, Jeff Beaver.
In order to earn the “Best of the Best” designation, a restaurant must have overall operational excellence and the highest scores on a standard set of measurements called C.H.A.M.P.S. These measurements evaluate each restaurant in six key areas of operation - Cleanliness, Hospitality, Accuracy, Maintenance, Product Quality and Speed of Service. Approximately 60 restaurants nationwide are awarded this status.
“Being named ‘Best of the Best’ is an accomplishment that marks the highest honors a KFC team can achieve,” said Harvey Brownlee, Chief Operating Officer, KFC Corporation. “Ms Wenzara and her employees can take great pride in this achievement because it means they are doing things ‘The Colonel’s Way’ by having the highest standards for restaurant operations and preparing delicious, high-quality meals for each customer, every day.”
KFC Corporation hosted a four-day celebration at the Adventura Spa Palace in Cancun, Mexico honoring Wenzara and other KFC managers who received the distinguished “Best of the Best” recognition for restaurant excellence. KFC President and Chief Concept Officer, Gregg Dedrick, hosted the event.
