Challenging times remind us of what matters most, our guests and team members. ?? The restaurant industry has faced its share of hurdles within the past few years. While reading headlines about bankruptcies is never easy, they serve as a powerful reminder: people are the backbone of any brand. ? At Cotton Patch Cafe, caring for our team and guests isn’t just a strategy—it’s our foundation. By staying people-first, we continue to build long-term success, one meaningful relationship at a time.

It’s unfortunate to see so many bankruptcies in our industry. While sometimes this process is necessary to reset a brand’s debt structure or shed underperforming assets, it is still tough on team members, guests, and partners. While we’ve seen an increase in bankruptcies lately, I see this as an acute issue that specific brands are facing. I remain bullish that brands who take care of their guests and their teams will thrive long term. https://lnkd.in/gDAJ-Kgg
