Greenberg Glusker attorneys Sedina Banks, Craig Coan, Sherry Jackman, Peter Jackson, and Wendy Lane authored an article for QSR on the upcoming challenges businesses in the restaurant industry may face and how to overcome them.

Excerpts: 

This year is bringing significant challenges for operators in the quick-service restaurant industry. Some may come as a surprise, and some are a continuation of the biggest hurdles in recent years, as new laws, increasing threats, and economic pressures that aren’t letting up create a perfect storm capable of taking down even the most beloved brands and restaurant locations. Sustainable growth and success in this highly competitive landscape requires extensive planning and, ideally, a cross-disciplinary team of advisers familiar with the QSR space.
