Specific Minority Program(s) in Place: PAPA MURPHY'S takes a proactive position in regard to minority recruitment. We have placed ads for franchisees in minority owned newspapers and attended Minority Business Symposiums in an attempt to attract new owners. Also, our Senior Vice President of Development Jerry Kennedy is developing a Minority Recruitment Program. We hope to build an awareness and presence in the minority community prior to entering a burgeoning market and attract qualified owners while suburban and urban sites still exist.
