Fast casual is the fastest-growing food service segment, attracting a diverse and expanding demographic that expects higher quality than typical fast-food chains. With increasing media scrutiny and public awareness of food safety, a single incident of food-borne illness, poor quality, or an exposé of poor hygiene at any franchise location could have disastrous effects on the entire brand. Therefore, food quality and safety must be meticulously managed from the supplier to the restaurant to protect both customers and the brand’s reputation.
