The Thesis

Marriott-brand property held the way a family office should hold hospitality — at the operating layer, not the franchisor layer.

Sub-brand and unit count are not disclosed publicly. The position is franchisee-operator, with Sal Afridi leading the vertical alongside finance and Sam Brooks' multi-sector operating background covering hospitality. Quick-service and restaurant brands live in their own sector.
