SCOTTSDALE, ARIZ. -- Cold Stone Creamery has named Dan Beem president to replace Jim Flaum, who left the chain recently to work on his family-owned Teakwoods Tavern & Grill.

Beem, a four-year veteran of the 1,400-unit ice cream chain, most recently was its vice president of profitability. The veteran of Planet Hollywood and T.G.I. Friday's also operated his own restaurant for two years.

Doug Ducey, chief executive of the Kahala-Cold Stone holding company, cited Beem's "understanding of Cold Stone Creamery operations along with his experience serving the franchisee community."
