Championed by our friends at Community Futures Sunrise
How do you make a small fortune in the restaurant biz? Start with a large one!
It's a running joke (albeit a bad one) in the food industry and one both Ron and Taunya have experienced first-hand. Joking aside, the restaurant biz is known as a "penny-industry", where every single cent needs to be scrutinized in order to turn a profit. And now, add a Carona Virus to the mix, and the recipe's even tougher to nail!
