The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is crippling the restaurant industry in an unprecedent rate.  In cities all over the country and all of the world, the recent pandemic has impacted our industry like nothing before.  For years restaurateurs have faced numerous challenges but nothing has ever impacted our industry like this recent challenge.  As in most cases, the small business owner is the one that suffers the most.  Large corporations have endless resources, that can assist them in navigating these uncharted waters.   The hospitality community has always shown amazing resilience and once again this is evident all over the world.


Businesses will experience various phases during these times. The recent mandatory shutter of restaurants has put all businesses in a survival state.  Most restaurants need to focus on minimizing losses during these times and survive until we are able to re-open the doors and get back to some sort of normality.  Once the doors re-open to the public, thats when everyone needs to focus on re-building their business.  Remember that our actions during this period are going to help define our future.
