Gamer Arcades Joins Forces with Frankie's Burgers Franchises
LEEDS (9 July) Gamer Arcades and fast food franchise Frankie's Burgers have announced a new
partnership, which will formally start at the beginning of August. At that time, all Gamer
Arcades will introduce a Frankie's Burgers to their locations.
The president of Gamer Arcades, Allen Ingram, expressed his excitement about the possibilities
of this strategic partnership.
"The outstanding quality of Frankie's Burgers will enhance customers' enjoyment of our
arcades," said Mr. Ingram. "Until now, there have been no food options on the premises. With
this partnership, however, customers will be able to take a break for a delicious meal and then
get back to enjoying our state-of-the-art gaming centers."
This is not the first major change Mr. Ingram has made to the company since he took over from
Justine Beckerman last November. A month after assuming the role of president, he brought
virtual reality games to Gamer Arcades. Since that time, he has also expanded the company into
Germany and Belgium, and he has launched several charity initiatives associated with Gamer
Arcades.

it.
Jakob Wendt (9:09 A.M.) That's unfortunate. We need to follow up with that meeting to advise

Maria Andreou (9:10 A.M.) Exactly. So I would rather not have to reschedule. The client is
expecting our report early next week. Would either of you be able to conduct the group instead

Maria Andreou (9:17 A.M.) Great. I'll send you the participant consent form by e-mail.
Remember that at the start of the group session, each participant will need to sign a copy.
Jakob Wendt (9:18 A.M.) OK. How many copies will be needed?
Sandra Liu (9:19 A.M.) Actually, there's no need. I have copies left over from another group
ran last Tuesday. They're still on my desk.
Jakob Wendt (9:20 A.M.) I'll stop by and pick them up later today.
Maria Andreou (9:21 A.M) Thank you both. This means we can meet and work on the
