The first theme of the session will look at what forecasted recovery will look like given the many obstacles in the way, such as unemployment and debt. It will explore how the future economic environment will favor chains over independents, discuss the role of physical foodservice sites in a post-pandemic world, review margin challenges and traffic declines hindering rebuilding, and ultimately help you understand how to account for bumps in your recovery process. We’ll then turn our attention to why operators are focusing more and more on running efficient and profitable operations over culinary experimentation in order to solve for operational challenges, and how this affects your product pipeline, as well as your sales and marketing strategies.
