POLLO TROPICAL® Partners with World Central Kitchen to Supply Free Meals for Victims in the Bahamas

Today, Pollo Tropical® launched a partnership with Chef José Andres’ charitable organization, World Central Kitchen, to benefit the organization’s hurricane relief efforts in the Bahamas. Pollo Tropical is pledging a dollar donation for every Pollo Tropical Original Family Meal purchased at any of the brand’s 140 company-owned locations from September 15 through October 6 to the recovery effort

“Florida was spared from the devastation of Hurricane Dorian, but our friends in the Bahamas were not. Our Pollo Tropical family is committed to helping those affected by providing Chef José Andres with funds needed to help feed the families affected by the storm,” said Richard Stockinger, Chief Executive Officer and President of Fiesta Restaurant Group, the parent company of Pollo Tropical. 

World Central Kitchen (WCK) is a not-for-profit non-governmental organization devoted to providing meals in the wake of natural disasters. Founded in 2010 by chef José Andrés, the organization’s method of operations is to be a first responder and then to collaborate and galvanize solutions with local chefs to solve the problem of hunger, immediately following a disaster.
