Welcome to Atlanta!<br />
On behalf of the<br />
Georgia Restaurant<br />
Association (GRA), I<br />
would like to welcome<br />
you to Atlanta.<br />
Whether it is for a<br />
rehearsal dinner, a 90th<br />
birthday celebration or<br />
a college graduation<br />
party, restaurants know<br />
how to set the table for<br />
any occasion. Restaurants provide a gathering place<br />
and create a sense of community, while fostering<br />
social relationships, memories and just fulfilling the<br />
need for connection. Restaurateurs strive to create<br />
memorable dining experiences with relentless<br />
planning, attention to detail and commitment to<br />
service.<br />
The restaurant industry is<br />
a very special and unique<br />
industry. In this digital world<br />
that we are living in today, we<br />
cannot go out to eat online.<br />
Restaurants still require<br />
a need for face-to-face<br />
interaction, both internally as<br />
an employer and externally<br />
as a patron.<br />
Now more than ever,<br />
Americans are dining outside<br />
of their homes. Restaurants<br />
constitute a particularly large<br />
and growing share of our<br />
economy and it is important<br />
to promote dining out<br />
locally so that our economy<br />
continues to thrive. When<br />
supporting local businesses,<br />
there is an opportunity to<br />
preserve local character and<br />
prosperity. It creates a sense<br />
of community well-being.<br />
Dining locally will keep the<br />
dollars at home and continue<br />
to support the businesses in<br />
the area. Restaurants tend to<br />
combine our neighbors in a<br />
web of economic and social<br />
relationships.<br />
The GRA’s mission is to serve<br />
as the voice for Georgia’s<br />
Proud to<br />
be part of<br />
growth in<br />
North Futon<br />
since 1989!<br />
restaurants in advocacy, education and awareness.<br />
The GRA is sanctioned by the National Restaurant<br />
Association to operate Georgia’s only not-for-profit<br />
representing the state’s foodservice industry. The<br />
GRA serves as the unified voice for over 17,000<br />
foodservice and drinking places in the state of<br />
Georgia with total sales in excess of $17.1 billion<br />
which provides more than 438,900 jobs. From large<br />
chains to state-ups, the GRA helps make Georgia a<br />
better place for restaurants to do business and helps<br />
make restaurants better for Georgia.<br />
So as we work to set the table for our restaurant<br />
members, let your local restaurants set the table.<br />
Enjoy the dining destinations in your community and<br />
remember to dine out and dine often.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Karen Bremer<br />
