What you can do:


Typically all news stories come from internal tracking by our researchers as a result of calling your company every four months. But if you have press release information you want to share or breaking news, please send it immediately to us in PDF format.

Many of you expressed interest in exposing the audience to technology information, automation issues, new equipment and operational benefits.

If you have a press release, specific issues or something you think may be of interest to our readers, please send it to us in PDF format.

What we will do:

We are currently putting together a plan addressing these issues for inclusion and commentary.

We've had this question numerous times:

Why can't I see all the alerts that are published each week?

Answer:

This alerts newsletter only highlights a fraction of alerts. Currently full weekly alerts reports are bundled as part of a subscription to Restaurantchains.net.
