Dear Chefs, Restaurant Owners, Culinary Directors, and CEOs:
Marrying shared missions, the Good Food 100 Restaurants™ and the James Beard Foundation have once again partnered to accelerate transparency in the culinary community and promote the importance and impact of a sustainable food system.
Taking this survey is how chefs, restaurants and food service businesses can be part of the 2020 Good Food 100 Restaurants™, an annual List and Industry Impact Report designed to educate eaters and celebrate restaurants changing the food system for good.
Any U.S. restaurant or food service operation is eligible. No cost to participate.
Individual restaurant data is CONFIDENTIAL.
NEW DEADLINE: June 30, 2020 (11:59pm PT)
Application data will be verified by Nsf.org, and analyzed by the Business Research Division at the Leeds School of Business, University of Colorado Boulder, to create a national industry impact report that aims to measure how restaurants are helping to build a better food system by being transparent with their business practices and positively impacting every link of the food chain: the environment; plants and animals; farmers, ranchers and fisherman; purveyors; restaurants; and eaters.. The Good Food 100 Restaurants™ List and Industry Impact Report will be published in Fall 2020.
In 2019, 137 restaurants, representing 341 locations, in 29 states, and all 8 regions of the United States participated in the 2nd Annual Good Food 100 Restaurants™, and through their purchasing practices made a
