Sales have taken a dive off a cliff as dining rooms close and operations resort to carryout, delivery, and drive thru only. There is no certain timetable for when the threat of coronavirus fades, and when restaurants can return to some sense of normal.To help the industry through this challenging time, we're going to publish several mini episodes featuring industry leaders discussing their creative solutions to conquering this difficult season. With input from operators, vendors, consultants, data analysts, and more, these mini episodes will facilitate incredibly important conversation on how we can collectively survive the coronavirus scare. First up is Stephan Harman, cofounder of FUSIAN, a sushi roll and bowl concept based in Columbus, Ohio.

Zach Weprin is the Co-founder and CEO of FUSIAN, a fresh-casual sushi rolls and bowls concept that operates 10 restaurants in Ohio. In 2008, after graduating with a finance degree from THE Ohio State University, he moved to Aspen, Colorado to become a bellman (aka ski bum), and it was there he learned the value of a healthy lifestyle and authentic hospitality. In 2009 the business plan for Soho Sushi was written as a customer-centric sushi experience which later became the origin of FUSIAN. In 2010 he moved to Cincinnati, partnered with his brother Josh & childhood friend Stephan Harman, and together they opened their first restaurant at the age of 24.

In this episode with Zach Weprin, we discuss:  How growth comes from living in that place of discomfort.  How Fusian came to be.  The process of opening a restaurant with ZERO experience.  Leveraging technology in place of skilled positions to streamline processes.  Acting like a national brand; even if you're not.  How giving your guest fewer options serve both the operation and the guest.  Using your sales mix to determine what menu items to focus on.  Educating your team and guest on your menu.  Growing too fast and how to recover.  Being careful to not promote people before they're ready.  Getting the right people on your team with the skills you're lacking.   The power of just starting and being comfortable being uncomfortable.  Childhood friends Zach Weprin, Josh Weprin and Stephan Harman love sushi. It was during their college careers that they saw a need for a simple, fresh, and affordable sushi dining option. with this as their inspiration, they set out to create that experience. Fusian opened in may of 2010 as a place where discerning diners can customize sushi rolls in a fun, interactive, and energetic environment. 8 years later they're operating 10 locations throughout Ohio State.
