Description

Virtual Event | Peer Roundtable: Bar and Restaurant Owners 
Thursday, May 7 | 10:30 - 11:30 AM
 
Take a breath and join us for a facilitated discussion about how you've been navigating business during COVID-19.  Share how you've tackled the issues that coronavirus imposed on your business and the pivots that have kept you surviving, if not thriving.  We'll also talk about what happens after the COVID-19 shutdown.

• How will bar and foodservice businesses need to adapt and change to meet different market conditions and customer behaviors?
• How will marketing efforts need to change to re-attract and retain customers?
• How will staffing change?

Register by noon on Wednesday, May 6. Space is limited to to 35 owners or managers of locally owned, independent restaurants and bars. We will maintain a waiting list for registrations above that amount.

You will receive an email with the Zoom meeting link and information on joining the meeting on the afternoon of Wednesday, May 6.

The Quad Cities Chamber is waiving the fee for this event.
