Announcing New Leadership at The Shumacher Group
The Shumacher Group is excited to announce an important leadership transition that marks both a new chapter and a continued commitment to excellence in restaurant and retail real estate.
Peter Kruskamp will be moving on from The Shumacher Group to step into an exciting new role as Director of Real Estate for a national, privately owned restaurant chain. This opportunity reflects Peter’s leadership, experience, and deep industry knowledge. As a protégé of Harold Shumacher, the company’s founder, Peter played a key role in advancing the firm’s legacy and strengthening its reputation in the Atlanta market.
As Peter transitions into this next chapter, ownership of The Shumacher Group will pass to Stephanie Shumacher, Harold Shumacher’s daughter and Peter’s wife. Stephanie’s leadership ensures the company remains firmly rooted in the values, vision, and entrepreneurial spirit established by her father.
In addition, Steven Josovitz—widely recognized as the premier restaurant business broker in the region—will continue to serve clients while also assuming the role of Qualifying Broker for The Shumacher Group.
Together, Harold Shumacher, Steven Josovitz, Irving Jacobson, Peter Kruskamp, and the many talented current and former agents and brokers have built The Shumacher Group into one of Atlanta’s top retail and restaurant real estate brokerages. With this experienced leadership team in place, clients can confidently continue to depend on The Shumacher Group for trusted guidance, deep market expertise, and exceptional results for years to come.
