  • 1 to the COVID-19 PANDEMIC the Restaurant Stabilization Fund Will
    INDEPENDENT RESTAURANTS ARE A NEXUS OF SMALL BUSINESSES IN THE UNITED STATES AND DRIVE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF ECONOMIC ACTIVITY THAT IS AT RISK OF BEING LOST DUE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC The Restaurant Stabilization Fund Will Yield at Least an Estimated $183 Billion in Primary Benefits to the U.S. Economy, Plus an Additional Estimated $65 Billion in Secondary GDP Benefits by Enabling Independent Restaurants to Help the U.S. Economy Rebound, and Will Single-Handedly Reduce the U.S. Unemployment Rate by an Estimated 2.4 Percentage Points ERIC AMEL, DARIN LEE, ERIN SECATORE AND ETHAN SINGER1 JUNE 10, 20202 1. Executive Summary Independent restaurants are integral to the economic, social, and cultural fabric of local communities.3 These small businesses invigorate streets, help set the rhythm of local life, provide unique venues for social and business interaction, and embrace and share tradition. They help to revitalize neighborhoods, stimulate economic activity in other local businesses, contribute to public programs through generation of large sales taxes, and foster civic pride. Independent restaurants are also a conduit for community members to achieve their American Dream: the restaurant industry is home to many who had their first (and last) job experience in a restaurant, have found opportunity and/or stability in the industry, and have overcome personal or professional barriers to capitalize on dreams of becoming a chef or owning and managing their own restaurants. Independent restaurants are vital to the U.S. economy. In addition to contributing significantly to the more than $760 billion in annual sales in the broader restaurant economy, these restaurants directly employ 11 million people across the country.

  • JAMES BEARD FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 2020 NOMINEES Media and Restaurant & Chef Awards Details Also Announced
    For Immediate Release May 4, 2020 Media Contact Mary Blanton Ogushwitz / John Roth Magrino 212 957 3005 [email protected] [email protected] JAMES BEARD FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 2020 NOMINEES Media and Restaurant & Chef Awards Details Also Announced NEW YORK, NY (May 4, 2020) – The James Beard Foundation is proud to announce the nominees for the 2020 James Beard Awards presented by Capital One. The nominees were announced today on what would have been the 30th Anniversary James Beard Awards in Chicago. Over the past few months COVID-19 has upended the restaurant community in every facet. During this time the Foundation has turned its attention to supporting the relief and rebuild efforts, postponing Awards activities to instead focus on the James Beard Foundation Food and Beverage Industry Relief Fund, which to date has disbursed more than $4 million to independent, locally owned restaurants around the country. After consultation with the chefs and restaurateurs across the country, the Foundation decided to announce the 2020 nominees and honorees, and set the dates for this year’s remaining Awards events, which recognize the work done in 2019. The announcement was livestreamed via the Foundation’s Twitter account and co-hosted by VISIT PHILADELPHIA President and CEO Jeff Guaracino and Clare Reichenbach, CEO of the James Beard Foundation. As the original nominee announcement was set to take place in Philadelphia, the Foundation shared the virtual stage with several others from the great city, including Mayor Jim Kenney, Philadelphia’s Kalaya Thai Kitchen chef and owner, Chutatip “Nok” Suntaranon, and Jamila Robinson, 2020 Journalism Awards Committee Vice Chair and Food Editor of The Philadelphia Inquirer.
