To all my connections in Food & Beverage industry

If you thought incorporating social impact into your business strategy was only important to certain industries, look no further than Mecha Noodle Bar and founder/CEOs TONY M PHAM and Richard Reyes for evidence to the contrary. They have built a beautifully simple and effective business model and movement with Eat Justice, and their recent recognition by the Connecticut Restaurant Association as CT's 2023 Restauranteurs of the Year is so well deserved! Amazingly, this month Mecha Noodle Bar is donating almost $60,000 to a nonprofit nominated by an employee- and they make this kind of significant donation EVERY month through the Eat Justice model. Most players in the restaurant industry are not particularly known for corporate social responsibility, and especially for the small- to mid-sized restaurant businesses out there, slim margins are a frequent and legitimate concern when talking corporate citizenship. Many businesses in this and many other industries shy away from regular investment in social impact, but doing all they can when they can. This is valuable, and I hope still as appreciated as it was during the height of COVID 19. But what if a few fairly simple tweaks to your business model changed that? This is what Rich and Tony are achieving through Eat Justice- and it's paying off. Their business thriving, opening new locations in three more states in 2024. Their employee dedication and satisfaction is far above average. They are gaining a fantastic reputation with patrons beyond their seriously yummy chow, with a loyal base returning regularly because they know they're making an impact by eating there. And it's no small impact. Eat Justice is a movement- and their model is no secret. Seriously, ask Rich. Ask Tony. Ask any location manager. Ask me! It's not difficult to implement, is scalable, and is just as applicable for brand new companies as multi-generational companies. It's adaptable across industries. The goal is to truly build a community where lifting each other up is a given, woven into the fabric of the economy. Social impact investment is one facet of corporate citizenship. Businesses of the future will need to pay attention to all of the facets, but this is certainly an easy place to start.

When you invent the 𝘉𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘬𝘧𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘛𝘢𝘤𝘰 probably no shock to be named 𝗕𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗧𝗮𝗰𝗼𝘀 🏆...  2nd year in a row! 👏👏 I know San AnTACO™️... I know... these lists are dumb and don't measure whatever taco metrics that really count but some interesting stats non the less about 𝗔𝗧𝗫 - 𝗧𝗔𝗖𝗢 𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗨𝗦𝗔! 👇 🌮 𝟳.𝟵 Taco joints per 100k residents (𝟸𝟺𝟸% 𝚖𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚗 𝚊𝚟𝚐. 𝚌𝚒𝚝𝚢) 🌮 𝟳.𝟰 percent of all restaurants in Austin are dedicated to tacos (𝟷𝟽𝟸% 𝚖𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚗 𝚊𝚟𝚐. 𝚌𝚒𝚝𝚢) 🌮 𝟵𝟲 on Google Taco Passion Score (𝚆𝚑𝚊𝚝𝚎𝚟𝚎𝚛 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚑𝚎𝚕𝚕 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝 𝚒𝚜) 🌮 𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 Taco Bell's per Sq/Mile (𝙸 𝚖𝚊𝚍𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝 𝚞𝚙 😜) 🌮 𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 places to eat Tacos at 3am (𝙸 𝚖𝚊𝚍𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝 𝚞𝚙 𝚝𝚘𝚘 𝚋𝚞𝚝 𝚖𝚊𝚢 𝚋𝚎 👍) P.S. I know Austin didn't invent putting eggs inside a tortilla for breakfast, but until disproven, we are credited with coining the term 'Breakfast Taco' for commercial use... and I feel like that is something! #austin #linkedglenn #tacocity #bestever #culinaryexcellence #visitaustin #tacoliscious
