"As American consumers' food tastes shift toward healthier choices, UFood Grill is poised to be a leader in the 'better-for-you' quick-serve restaurant category," stated Tony Paquin, CEO of The Paquin Group. "George's previous success as an innovator in the restaurant franchising industry and his plans to target the hospital market makes this a must-see presentation for all hospital executives."

Conference attendees will have the opportunity to meet with George and to discuss a partnership between their hospitals and his restaurant group.

George is frequently featured in publications such as Forbes, Entrepreneur, Success, The Wall Street Journal, and most recently in the February 2008 issue of Inc. Magazine. The magazine described him as America's franchising guru. Naddaff is most known for the stunning success of Boston Market, originally Boston Chicken, which he sold in 1992 to a group of Blockbuster Video executives and shared in its record-setting IPO (143% first-day increase) in 1993.

UFood Grill offers a healthy lifestyle alternative in the fast-casual restaurant place. The restaurant group is committed to providing great-tasting fast food that consumers can feel good about eating. UFood Grill has recently partnered with George Foreman to spread awareness about healthy, quick-serve dining.

The Healthcare Retail '08 Conference is sponsored by The Paquin Group, the nation's leading healthcare retail consultancy, and is the premier meeting event for hospitals and healthcare organizations considering or currently implementing a retail strategy. The sale of healthcare-related products is a rapidly expanding market that generates revenues of more than $500 billion annually. It represents a highly profitable and sizable source of revenue for healthcare systems.

"Implementing a retail strategy is now seen as important for hospitals and healthcare systems to generate new, non-reimbursed revenue," stated Paquin.

The conference covers a complete range of healthcare retail topics, including specific information on how to assess and implement healthcare retail systems to capture a portion of this burgeoning market. These include hospital retail locations, ecommerce solutions, branding strategies, loyalty cards, private label brands, in-room education/television technology and medical day spas.
