Dallas-based Dave & Buster's Inc. named John Mulleady as senior vp of development, responsible for leading the company's expansion strategy into new and under-penetrated markets.

The restaurateur operates 59 locations in the U.S. and Canada, and expects to open several more in the future.

“Dave & Buster's has big plans for expansion, and we needed a leader with experience opening a large number of new stores. John's background in developing large-format brands makes him the ideal person to lead this charge,” says Steve King, ceo of Dave & Buster's.

Mulleady was most recently vp of real estate and construction at BJ's Wholesale Club.
