Episode Details

What other restaurant franchise is still successful after 100 years? Fifty years ago, my family would drive in, the car hop would attach a tray to our car window and then bring the frosty cold mug of Root Beer, the Cheeseburgers and the ice cream sundaes…. I can still taste that experience and feel it today. It’s nostalgic and all-American! In this episode of the Restaurant Rockstars Podcast, I’m speaking with John Palumbo, Sr. Director of Restaurant Franchise Development for the famous A & W chain. Listen or watch as John talks about: - The history and secret to 100 years of success - What has changed and stayed the same over 10 decades of business - Rising costs, the labor crisis, supply chain challenges and other pain points - The R & D process for new menu items - Critical systems for operator success - Loyalty and Marketing that works And of the course, the A & W Restaurant Franchise opportunity at www.awrestaurants.com Watch or Listen to this episode and then go out there and Rock YOUR Restaurant! https://bit.ly/E322RRP Roger Thank you to our sponsors 🌟SRV - Unlock Staff Potential and Maximize Sales.
