“This award is a testament to the hard work we put in each and every day at all of our restaurants, and the amazing people we have on board to help us do so,” Medellin said in a statement. “I can’t wait to share the news and celebrate this award with my team.”
Medellin, originally from Mexico, worked in the manufacturing industry before moving to the United States. He purchased his first Russo’s franchise in 2009. His three franchise locations are in Spring, Houston and The Woodlands on College Park Drive.
