Puesto’s Alexander Adler Makes Forbes’ 2019 ’30 Under 30′ List

Puesto’s co-founder Alexander Adler, who is just 25 years old, has been recognized on this year’s Forbes’ ’30 under 30′ list! Alexander founded Puesto with his brothers Eric and Alan Adler, along with cousins Isidoro and Moy Lombrozo, in 2012 when he was just 19.

After graduating from San Diego’s Francis Parker School, Alex headed off to NYU to gain experience at college and take jobs that would help him in his role at Puesto after returning home. Post college graduation, he worked for tech companies Uber, Google and Facebook to hone his skills in marketing and advertising (particularly on social platforms).

He returned home a little over a year ago to come fully onboard on the operations side of things with Puesto. In that short time, he’s moved ahead with a number of initiatives (including partnerships, events and pop-ups) and helped to grow the company from within, focusing on hiring.

The restaurant has just opened it’s sixth location in Concord, CA and Alex was highly involved with the process, ensuring the design and tech used throughout is state-of-the-art.

With the addition of Concord, Puesto restaurants have a combined 1,200 seats throughout California. All the better to serve more tacos!

Congratulations to Alexander and the Puesto team!
