As a franchised restaurant, owned locally and operated by a team of people living in the communities we serve, we believe it is our obligation to give back. We are committed to providing support to schools and non-profits in the Pittsburgh and Erie areas through our Community Support Program.Every company has a marketing budget with endless options of where it can be spent. What if a franchised restaurant, owned locally and operated by a team of people living in the communities they serve, actually decided to just give the marketing dollars back to the community? Could the school music program thrive again? Could the youth football team afford to buy the safest helmets available? Could the local animal rescue afford to save the lives of more puppies?We think so. Welcome to Giving Back. Welcome to Moe's™ https://www.welcometogivingback.com/
In this episode we discuss eating out during quarantine, some of Shawn's wildly inaccurate impersonations, and several other off the wall items culminating into a great show brought to you by PETA! (yeah, we are just joking about the PETA thing). Thanks for listening, and enjoy! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/triplef/message
Paul Damico originally made a name for himself as the president of Moe's Southwest Grill, scaling the fast-casual Mexican brand from 200 units to around 700 in his eight years with FOCUS Brands. But in 2017, Roark Capital Group—majority owner of FOCUS—asked Damico if he'd be interested in serving as CEO of one of the group's much smaller investments, Naf Naf Grill. Springing at the chance to build something nearly from the ground up, Damico moved to Chicago and took the helm at the fast-casual Middle Eastern concept. In this conversation with QSR editor Sam Oches, Damico shares why he left FOCUS Brands to lead a startup, why he thinks Naf Naf has the potential to become a booming franchise, and how he thinks restaurant brands should navigate the explosion in off-premises business.QSR Magazine informationFacebook | Twitter | Instagram | LinkedInQSRmagazine.com Have feedback or interview suggestions?
