Hala Moddelmog

Hala Moddelmog was appointed as president of Church's Chicken in 1996, making her the first female president of a "Quick Service Restaurant" chain (better known as fast food restaurants). During her leadership of Church's Chicken, more than 19 per cent of Church's Chicken franchises have become owned by female franchisees. This is due in large part to the company's attempts to network female investors and would-be female franchisees together to evade the biased appearance that some QSR's present toward female entrepreneurs.
