MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT

​

Welcome Message for JOA Meeting

I’m honored to serve as President of the Jack in the Box Operators Association (JOA) and proud to be part of the group known as the 2nd Gens. With over 10 years of experience as a franchisee, I was raised in the Jack in the Box family and truly understand that we are stronger together.

​

The JOA was formed with a clear mission: to support franchisees across all markets and to foster a collaborative relationship with our corporate partners. As we begin this journey together, our goal is to bring a new level of unity and communication to the system and support JIB corporate.

​

We are now on our 6th JOA Conference and are excited about our association. We want our conferences and meetings where our members have an opportunity for open dialogue — to discuss challenges, share be practices, and learn from each other. With a more intimate setting, we’re confident that our Guest Speakers will have more meaningful engagement with the group, sparking deeper and more productive conversations.

​

Additionally, attendees will have valuable time to connect with our vendor partners, who are here to support our shared vision and growth.

We believe that communication with Jack in the Box corporate (JIB) is evolving — and for the better. Our aim is to become a trusted, constructive partner for JIB, providing thoughtful feedback and working toward a stronger brand and more profitable restaurants for all.

​

And finally, please know that any concerns or issues raised here today will be heard. We are committed to bringing those matters to the attention of Jack in the Box Corporate and working together to find effective solutions.

Thank you for being here and for supporting the start of something impactful. Let’s make it count — together.

​

Thank you,
Nikki Sood
