NXT 124 | Jordan Piazza - Mounger is dropping this Thursday, March 7th!

Jordan Piazza is the Founder of ReBirth Brands. He started this company to revitalize brands in the Baton Rouge area and take their reputation to new heights with reformed management tactics. Jordan has a long list of experience in the hospitality industry growing up inside a local favorite, Phil's, which was founded by his late father. After working at a top company like Raising Canes, early on in his career, Jordan was able to take the best business practices and apply it to his first big revitalization project with his brother - reopening Phil's in honor of his dad. Hospitality is definitely in his blood, because he now helps manages many trailblazers in the area such as Uncle Earl's, Schlitts & Giggles, and The Caterie. At one point in his career, he even ran for Mayor of Baton Rouge! We enjoyed learning about Jordan Piazza’s journey thus far; can’t wait to hear what y’all think of this one!
