## Story

The new franchise will be owned by Don Williams, who brings 40 years of management experience to the business, as a former executive in the nuclear industry. He decided to pursue a new opportunity with We Sell Restaurants after rising through the ranks at his former company. Williams’ business will serve the greater Forest and Lynchburg market and extend north and east to include Lexington, Staunton, Harrisonburg, and Charlottesville.

“My passion for trying different cuisine turned into a fascination with the behind-the-scenes aspect of the restaurant industry,” said Williams. “I am thrilled to use my decades worth of leadership experience to assist people who are interested in buying or selling a restaurant.”

“We enjoy adding eager franchisees to our team with impressive backgrounds like Don,” said We Sell Restaurants’ CEO Robin Gagnon. “He is a detailed-oriented professional with a passion and drive that’s unmatched.”

“Throughout my career, I’ve worked with a diverse group of professionals who needed help with various long-term projects,” said Williams. “I have a knack for problem solving and can’t wait to help people in Central Virginia on behalf of We Sell Restaurants.”
