Poovin Pillay (CHA)
is ELFA Regional Director VII.He was educated in Africa. Prior
to moving to the USA, he owned a trucking business and hotels
as investment properties. Once in the USA, he purchased and operated
an independent motel. This sparked an incredible interest in the
hospitality industry for him. Poovin then moved his business interests
from Africa and invested in multiple properties here in the USA.
He sees being part of ELFA as an excellent medium for resolving
issues and conveying grievances at grass root levels with the
franchisor. He is currently an active member of the Lions Club
and AAHOA. He looks forward to working with owners of existing
Econo Lodge properties and conveying their needs in a satisfactory
manner to Choice.
