Wall Street Journal: Famous Toastery Featured in "In This Economy, Quitters Are Winning"

T he low unemployment rate and strong economy is creating a tight hiring climate for restaurants in the franchise industry, like growing better breakfast brand, Famous Toastery .

Recently, the Wall Street Journal reported that 3.4 million Americans quit their jobs in April according to the Labor Department. Robert Maynard, co-founder and CEO of Famous Toastery , has invested in showing promising existing employees a pathway to a career through management or even franchise ownership.

However, the head of the 30-unit-and-expanding chain understands that the strong economy is a sign that consumers have more money to spend.

“The restaurant industry has enjoyed paying people very low salaries for a long time,” Maynard told the Wall Street Journal. “The employees deserve it—they waited 20 years—good for them.”
