Houlihan's In Hershey, PA Earns Two Company Franchise Awards

Houlihan’s in Hershey, Pennsylvania, received two national franchise awards for 2015. At the 2015 Houlihan’s Conference Awards Ceremony in Amelia Island, Florida, the Hershey location earned the prestigious 2015 Operation of Excellence Award and Top Sales Award for its dedicated commitment to brand standards and leading sales nationwide. Only seven out of 92 general managers and their teams received the Operation of Excellence Award nationally.
