Pota said, “I feel privileged and humbled to be given an opportunity to lead India’s largest food service company. The Indian food services industry is poised for rapid growth and JFL, being the frontrunner, is well positioned to leverage this opportunity. I look forward to be a part of this exciting journey.”
Kaul had announced his decision to quit the company last year in September. The country’s largest quick service chain has been dealing with slowing sales for close to six quarters now, with consumers cutting back on discretionary spends and eating out.
