TL;DR
Kim Lewis has been appointed Chief Marketing Officer of Capriotti's Sandwich Shop, bringing over two decades of marketing experience to the role. Lewis previously held multiple roles at Sonic Drive-In, leading digital strategy, integrated marketing communications, and brand experience.
Kim’s experience in marketing spans well over two decades, including more than 15 years in the retail industry and most recently, 6+ years with Sonic Drive-In, where she held multiple roles leading digital strategy, integrated marketing communications and brand experience. She shared that the rapid expansion, core values and quality-focused culture of the Capriotti’s brand drove her to join the team and take the helm of their marketing division.
“Capriotti’s offers incredibly craveable sandwiches with the highest-quality ingredients, but so many people haven’t yet had the opportunity to try one. And it’s my intent to change that. Whether it’s my current favorite, the Wagyu Cheesesteak with hot peppers, our signature Bobbie with hand-pulled slow-roasted turkey, or any of our other mouthwatering subs, anyone can find their new favorite sandwich at Caps,” Lewis said.
“Kim will play a crucial role in driving growth and enhancing our digital channel campaigns and initiatives,” said Capriotti’s CEO Ashley Morris. “Aggressive leadership and vision are often the key to success. And as Kim has expressed, she wants to further Capriotti’s market share and give customers a reason to keep coming back. That clear level of devotion is why she stood out.”
Founded in 1976, Capriotti’s is most famous for its 40-year nightly tradition of slow-roasting whole, all-natural turkeys in-house and hand-shredding them each morning to feature in a variety of subs. This includes The Bobbie, the shop’s acclaimed best-seller, made with homemade turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, and mayo on a soft roll.
