KW PROPERTY MANAGEMENT & CONSULTING, a premier Florida-based association management company, has expanded its food and beverage offerings at properties across the state. They also welcomed two new team members: Andrew Holmes as Southwest Florida Regional Vice President and Scott Beale as Corporate Chef.

“With the addition of these two professionals, we are deepening our commitment to offering a full-service property management experience that includes the finest food and beverage services in the market,” said Chief Operating Officer Jorge Lago. “By combining our dedication, hard work, and creative expertise, we have elevated our ability to deliver unmatched comfort and quality to each of our residents.”

Holmes extensive hospitality career encompasses corporate, development, and operational experience across the globe. He pioneered the Autograph Collection with The Kessler Collection, Executive leadership with Vision Hospitality's new development and engineering First Hospitality Group's food and beverage division. He has assisted clients in  executive hospitality development and operational optimizations, feasibility assessments, concept development, site selection, brand management, financial projections, and business transformations.

Beale began his career as a marine biologist, working as an underwater welder for Oceaneering and other global companies. His passion for food led him to pivot into the culinary world, joining Dupont as a food and research professional, where he secured five U.S. patents in non-stick food technology. After returning home, Beale launched a successful catering business, opened two restaurants, and founded a food consulting firm. In 2011, he competed on Food Network’s Iron Chef with Firestone Winery, finishing as the first runner-up in the national culinary challenge. Since moving to Naples in 2014, Beale has served as a corporate chef both nationally and regionally. At KWPMC, he will lead food and beverage operations statewide, enhancing culinary experiences for the properties.

Earlier this year, KWPMC added Stephen Clark as the Executive Director of Food and beverage. Clark manages operations for a diverse portfolio of communities across Florida, ranging from a 60-unit luxury condominium in Miami Beach to a 1500-home resort-style community in Orlando.

“Our approach to F&B involves actively listening to the unique desires of homeowners in each community, tailoring our services, accordingly, said Clark. “We are aiming to streamline our operation while also creating one-of-a-kind offerings at each property.”

The KWPMC team achieves this through meticulous attention to detail, dedication, and creativity. The firm understands that exceptional service meets the needs of each resident, and as we expand our portfolio at KWPMC, we are committed to evolving our hospitality offerings to embrace the subtle nuances of refined comfort.
