In 2004, he and his brother, Jim Plamondon, formed Plamondon Hospitality Partners to manage the company’s hotels, as well as hotels for third parties.

In April 1998, Mr. Plamondon and his brother purchased the stock for Plamondon Enterprises from their parents and now share the Office of President for the company. As a means of furthering expansion for the company, the Roy Rogers trademark and franchise system were purchased by the brothers in July 2002.
