Keke's Breakfast Cafe Executive Named Among Top Franchise Marketing Leaders
We are celebrating an exciting milestone as our Senior Director of Marketing & Communications, Jenna Law, earns recognition among the top franchise marketing leaders to know in 2026. This acknowledgment highlights our commitment to intentional growth and a guest-first approach as we expand our footprint across the nation. We earned this honor because of our unwavering dedication to high-quality ingredients, freshly cooked meals, and creating a vibrant, friendly experience for every guest.
Balancing Our Standards with Local Flexibility
Law joined our team with a strong marketing background built outside the franchising industry, and that outside perspective became a real asset. She brought a fresh perspective to our marketing, focusing her initiatives entirely on the guest experience and close collaboration with our franchise owners.
Earning a spot in recent franchise marketing awards discussions, Law developed programs specifically designed to balance overarching standards with local flexibility. This approach ensures that every cafe maintains the inviting, made-to-order operational model we are known for, while empowering our franchise owners to connect authentically with their local communities and drive neighborhood engagement.

Backed by Denny's Corporation, our system operates with more than 60 franchised locations and 22 company-operated cafes. This strong infrastructure has fueled an active expansion strategy, resulting in over 80 locations nationwide.
