Garduno's Margarita Factory & Chile Packing Company Information

Garduño's Restaurants was founded in 1981 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, by Dave Garduño and his family. In the summer of 2011, a group of local investors created Southwest Brands which stepped in and saved this well known New Mexico Brand, immediately setting its goals to re-establishing and expanding the once proud Garduño's brand of the past. There are two corporately owned themed restaurants that exist today, the Garduño's Chile Packing Company located at the Winrock shopping center in the Northeast part of Albuquerque, and the Garduño's Margarita Factory and Blue Agave Bar located on the Westside of Albuquerque at the Cottonwood Shopping Center. Each concept remains fresh and appealing through continual design, decor, and menu updates. At the same time, new concepts are evolving and expansion is moving forward through a number of licensing agreements where the concept and great food can be shared with the rest of the country. Creating a true Dining Experience through our themed restaurant along with the pairing of consistently high quality food with exemplary customer service is the hallmark of Garduño's Restaurants. The keys to success include adhering to a very strict hiring profile, a thorough training program prior to guest contact, and then holding all employees accountable to uncompromising standards. Employees are constantly reminded that "The Guest always comes first." The food service industry remains one of the fastest growing segments of the US economy; and Garduño's Restaurants, with its solid history and multiple thriving concepts, provides a bright future for individuals searching for a rewarding restaurant career.
