At Inspire Brands, elevating each other and the communities we serve as Good Citizens is one of our core behaviors. We recognize the important role we can play as Good Citizens in the lives of our guests whom we serve and feed, our company and franchise team members whom we provide opportunity, and ultimately each of our local communities that we nourish through philanthropic efforts and economic impact.
The letter below is from our CEO and Co-Founder Paul Brown introducing our Good Citizens Report.
Welcome to Inspire’s inaugural Good Citizens Report. This report is intended to share our progress and aspirations in the areas of Sustainability, People First, and Community.
It is hard to believe that less than five years ago, the brands in our portfolio were operating as five separate and distinct companies. Yet today, we are on a journey to create a restaurant company unlike any other, with brands including Arby’s, Baskin-Robbins, Buffalo Wild Wings, Dunkin’, Jimmy John’s, and SONIC Drive-In and are now the second largest restaurant company in the United States.
The last couple years have been a time of resilience, achievement, and momentum. Our team members, particularly franchise and company restaurant teams, have dealt with tremendous uncertainty and challenge, but have kept pushing forward on our journey, emerging stronger because of what we have individually and collectively experienced.
At Inspire, elevating each other and the communities we serve as Good Citizens is one of our core behaviors. We recognize the important role we can play as Good Citizens in the lives of our guests whom we serve and feed, our company and franchise team members, whom we provide opportunity, and ultimately each of our local communities, that we nourish through philanthropic efforts and economic impact.
This report is intended to share our progress and aspirations in the areas of Sustainability, People First, and Community.
I would particularly like to thank our guests, team members, franchisees, suppliers, and the communities who contributed to the achievements captured in this report. Together, we strive to represent what it means to be Good Citizens.
