Boca Raton, FL. - Gyroville has signed its newest franchisee, Edward Torres, who recently signed a lease for his first location in Houston, Texas.

With an acute understanding of numbers, he has already demonstrated that he understands what it takes to succeed in the restaurant business.

Mr. Torres plans to “build a foundation with the Gyroville team that lays the groundwork for future success in the Houston metro area,” said Lambros Kokkinelis, founder and CEO of Gyroville.
