Carl & Margret Karcher

Carl Karcher was a businessman who founded the Carl’s Jr. Restaurant chain. He died on January 11, 2008 at the age of 90, his restaurants are now owned by the CKE Restaurants Company. His first business was a hot dog stand, on July 17, 1941, they began by selling hot dogs and Mexican tamales. Then on his 28^th birthday they opened their first restaurant in 1945 called the Carl’s Drive-In Barbecue, in Anaheim. He is a very hardworking man, you can see how hard this man must have worked in order to turn his hot dog stand into the chain of restaurant that it is now. He was the CEO of his company but got voted off because he didn’t agree with the commercial ideas his company wanted to do. He was a Christian who stood by his principles even if it meant losing his company. This shows that he will rather stand alone and keep doing good than stand with other who are doing bad.
