Chick-fil-A officials confirmed Friday that Susannah Frost is a 1991 graduate of Gainesville High School.

A press release from Chick-fil-A said Frost is the sixth person to hold the role since their founding in 1967.

Chief Executive Officer, Andrew T. Cathy, announced the news on Friday. 

“Susannah has demonstrated tremendous leadership throughout the business and has the range of expertise that will help the company continue growing with care and confidence,” Cathy said. “Having served as the CEO for three years, the timing is right to expand our leadership capabilities to include a president who will work closely with me and our executive committee to steward our domestic and global expansion.” 

Frost will lead the Executive Committee and will focus on “providing strategic clarity and alignment in the core business” to maintain growth and market leadership. 

“The future continues to offer so much potential and promise as we look to grow our opportunities to provide care and great food as well as live out our Corporate Purpose,” Frost said. “We have the opportunity to scale care with excellence across 3,000-plus restaurants and international markets. I look forward to working alongside Andrew, our leaders, Operators and Staff to provide this to Customers in the communities we serve.” 

Frost will assume the role of president on October 1.
