Brand Yu Design isn\u2019t a marketing agency that decided restaurants looked like a good niche.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n We come from the restaurant and foodservice business.<\/span><\/p>\n We\u2019ve owned restaurants. We\u2019ve operated them. We\u2019ve worked with foodservice distributors, manufacturers, brokers, sales teams and independent operators. We understand food cost, labor, menu engineering, purchasing, operations, online ordering, photography, branding and the daily reality of trying to get customers through the door.<\/span><\/p>\n That
