Tradewinds Universal Announces Appointment of Alan Chang to Board of Directors Tradewinds Universal had formally appointed Alan Chang as a Director and member of its Board of Directors. Mr. Chang had served on the Company’s Advisory Board since September 2025. Mr. Chang is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Peppermint Hippo and the leader of TRWD’s Experiential Hospitality Division, which is focused on the adult nightlife sector. Mr. Chang founded Peppermint Hippo in 2018 and built it into one of the fastest-rising brands in adult nightlife, with 12-plus venues nationwide anchored by the only gentlemen’s club on the Las Vegas Strip. Central to Mr. Chang’s track record is a proven, repeatable turnaround model that acquires underperforming or non-operational venues and converts them into upscale, brand-consistent destinations — the operating discipline now driving TRWD’s expansion strategy. Over nearly two decades in the industry, he has developed deep expertise in multi-unit operations, acquisitions, and brand building, including a General Manager role within RCI Hospitality, a leading publicly traded operator in the nightlife and hospitality sector. He is also an active industry voice, recently appearing as a featured guest on the Dropping Bombs podcast with Brad Lea. Announcement • Apr 01
