Fayette County spoils us!

We had a great visit to Joe’s Pizza & Pasta in Vandalia with co-owner Ben Davis. 🍕As both a business owner and investor in our program, Ben continues to pour into our students. He shared what it takes to run a successful restaurant and gave the students the chance to make their own pizzas.

Takeaways that stuck with us
⭐ Find employees who care about the business
🤝 Stay involved in your community
📦 Build strong supplier relationships
⚙️ Invest in efficient systems
🙌 Invest in people who make your life easier
🏡 Create a family-like environment

Huge thank you to Ben for his time and support!
