Interior closures, labor shortages, occupancy restrictions, supply chain, and changes in government mandates caused major brands to not only think on their feet, but to deploy new technology and processes very quickly.
Quick service restaurants adapted more quickly than competitors, and they were rewarded with not only a quick recovery but significant gains in market share within the restaurant industry.
