The fast casual joins a number of others that have announced sustainable initiatives in recent months.

The fast casual’s urban restaurants, in particular, have struggled during the pandemic and the chain is pushing ahead with new store formats.

The burger-and-shake chain, which was late to the delivery game, is redirecting its attention to getting delivery orders through its own channels.

The 186-unit fast casual said it plans to expand its total number of units by 45% in the next two years.

The fast-casual burger chain is partnering with well-known chefs around the country for one-day rollouts of special menu items.

The list of operators opting for that course is growing quickly.

The fast-casual burger chain won’t require employees get inoculated against COVID, but they’ll get six hours of PTO if they do.

The chain, hampered by its urban real estate portfolio, announced plans to open a drive-thru in a new Orlando development later this year.

The fast-casual chain continues to see improvement during the pandemic, but some locations are gaining back sales at a much faster pace than others.
