How is the restaurant industry adjusting to the Trump administration?
This week’s episode of the weekly restaurant finance podcast A Deeper Dive features Michelle Korsmo, the CEO of the National Restaurant Association.
This is the first in a series of podcasts we recorded during the National Restaurant Association Show this week.
We wanted to get a pulse on the restaurant industry and on its dealings with Washington, given the number of monumental issues there are.
We discuss the impact of tariffs on the industry, for instance, and how much import taxes are expected to cost operators. We also talk about immigration. Restrictions on immigration are expected to drive up labor costs by reducing the pool of workers. But Korsmo has perhaps some surprising news on the prospects of immigration reform.
It’s always an interesting conversation with the head of the industry’s biggest trade group so please check it out.
