We Provide Innovative Independent Restaurant Support

The Great Resignation

Restaurant Owners AND Workers Have Reached a Breaking Point

86% of independent restaurants still waiting for relief funds are expected to close their doors in 2022.  


While most owners are willing to make changes, few have the restaurant support and revenue they need to do so sustainably.


BREAD Innovation Lab exists to strengthen owners, workers and independent restaurants through an innovative workforce development program.

THE BREAD STORY

We're Helping in Several Ways

The BREAD Box (Services)

Pain Points of Independent Restaurants

Revenue

Technology

Technology

Razor thin profit margins and rising inflation make for razor thin restaurant support for owners & workers alike.


Revenue revamp efforts begin and end with collaborative team brainstorming and generation that expands what's possible for everyone.

Technology

Technology

Technology

An alarming number of independent restaurants rely on outdated or non existent tech. 


Modernizing the technology of independent restaurants is of critical importance. We provide restaurant support that bridges the gaps of training and implementation to help teams embrace new tech of all kinds. 



Governance

Technology

Governance

Very simply, this is all about who does what, how things gets done, and how decisions are made.  


By rethinking each restaurant's distribution of authority and responsibilities, we radically change what's possible via the democratization of the workplace.

Workforce

Technology

Governance

Workers have long been under valued, underpaid & over worked in every industry.


Our restaurant support identifies and implements workforce development programs for existing and new workers that can move their lives forward and provide the support they need. 

Sustainable Change Begins & Ends with Your People

In All Things, Big or Small, Our Approach Remains the Same:

Understand

Step 1 of any new goal or project is to listen, absorb, learn about the needs, goals and challenges of the team both individually and as a whole.  We create change through collaborative brainstorming that makes space for voices from every part of a restaurant.  By deepening our understanding of our team, we can continually expand what we take on together in business and personally.

Explore

Together we explore the various outcomes we want to achieve as a team as well as the possible approaches to achieve those objectives.

Decide

As a group, we determine the approach we want to take and address concerns that are raised by others on the team before making a decision to proceed. 

Implement

Just as in the previous three stages, implementation relies on the efforts of the group.  Everyone plays a part in the day-to-day conversations,  trainings and support that authentic organizational change requires.
