“Over the course of 3 years, Anthony and I got the chance to work alongside one another at Red Bul North America in various Key Accounts roles. While working with Anthony one of the things I found most admirable is his willingness to seek out challenging tasks for the betterment of the team. He would take on projects that while didn't contribute to his core KPIs, helped make our processes as a team more effective and efficient. Anthony is not only a personable, dependable, and analytical sales professional but he's also an outstanding role model for any organization!”

You may order sauce on the side but it's still the main attraction. 🎡 Don't take it from me! Peep this Nation's Restaurant News article highlighting the QSR sauce BOOM 💥 → According to Innova Market Insights, 39% of consumers are most likely to try new flavors through sauces, seasonings + toppings. → Technomic, Inc. reports that 34% of consumers consider what sauces are available before deciding on a place to eat. → And Datassential shows that more than half of consumers have purchased a new sauce or condiment from a restaurant in the past 3 months. In a foodservice climate starving for new traffic, sauce-centric LTOs featuring new + exciting flavors on familiar menu items (e.g. 🍗 + 🍟 + 🍔 + 🌮) can be your most operationally friendly + craveworthy solution. Something I know for sure: There is one midwesterner who will *always* drive through for a new ranch flavor extension. 🙋♀️ -- What's your go-to, gotta-have-it, will-go-out-of-your-way-for-it sauce? 👀👇

This is only a success story for manufacturers. Not for restaurants. Traffic decline, due to oversaturated markets and segments is not healthy for the industry. As it continues to implode in 2024 and into 2025, the purchases will fall, and prices will continue to rise to keep pace with YOY Comps in '25 & '26. Still a lot of headwinds for restaurants.

A double earnings/sales beat, raised guidance in many meaningful categories, and new product new news for CAVA makes for a great quarter. In fact, very few other brands--only a handful-- are doing as well. A new brand regarded as cool by guests and employees and the right kind of executive management and food has been evident for years now. The IPO seems to have supercharged attention and momentum. The discussion about the calendar adjusted SSS and traffic and the two year stacked SSS number warrants a note. While the 10Q P&L necessarily focuses on change from prior year, we are almost certainly wrong focusing on that number. We as an industry can and must spend more time on 2 year and even five year stacked numbers for better MD&A. CAVA did today. Their disclosure changed the tone. Thank you Brett Schulman.
