Slutty Vegan Appoints Tech Executive Lauren Maillian as President

US-based restaurant chain Slutty Vegan has appointed Lauren Maillian as its new President, citing her impressive credentials in leading successful turnarounds and founding and investing in various businesses. Maillian's appointment comes as the chain, founded by Pinky Cole, enters a new phase dubbed "Slutty Vegan 2.0" after facing challenges earlier this year.

With Maillian on board, Slutty Vegan aims to bring sophistication and scalability to its operations, marking a new chapter with an all-female corporate team. Cole, who recently regained control of the company under a new entity, believes Maillian's expertise will help in executing their "big plans" for the future. Additionally, the chain's expansion includes the launch of Voagies, an all-vegan hoagie shop in Atlanta, signaling new growth and opportunities under Maillian's leadership.
