1977: The Year It All Began
It all started in 1977 when Ron and Jill Pair began providing design consulting for McDonald’s restaurants throughout the Southeast. In 1978, the Pairs branched into decor specialization, fabricating decor which would also be designed in our headquarters. Adding to our repertoire in 1980, Ron and Jill integrated seating options for the restaurant chain, and by the mid-1980’s we were providing full-scale interior design projects and manufacturing all seating, as well as decor, that went into McDonald’s restaurants.
Casablanca Design Group provides our clients with the highest quality restaurant interior design, and we’ve been doing so for over 40 years. We officially moved into our Atlanta headquarters in 1990, where we continue to provide our clients with the same design and decor expertise established by Ron and Jill Pair. Since 2000, we have become an approved and preferred vendor to the globally-recognized McDonald’s and Burger King brands, and added Popeye’s to our portfolio in 2013.
Changing Hands & Paving the Way of the Future
Ron and Jill Pair officially retired in 2016 after selling the business to established businessman Alston Correll. Correll’s experience includes legal, business, and manufacturing expertise. Under his leadership, Casablanca Design Group continues to grow and flourish. Since Correll’s appointment as President of Casablanca, our team has experienced remarkable growth, escalating our reputation as a leader in the interior design industry.
Today, Casablanca Design Group provides expert restaurant interior design and fabrication to brands such as:
- McDonald’s
- Burger King
- Popeye’s
- Panda Express
In addition to these brands, we also work closely with brands in a variety of industries to provide custom interior designs and decor.
