Answer 6

I thought it would be " founder.. "

Seems plausible.

Answer 7

You'd call that a restauranteur.  However, it should be noted that in a large, multi-national chain, there isn't ONE person that does all of those things.  There is an entire staff of chefs that make the recipes, planners that make the menus, designers that make the themes.  A company that large will literally have thousands of people doing those things, so no ONE man does them all.
