THE BUSINESS OF FOOD: Navigating The Post-Pandemic Rules As They Change

The Business of Food is a 3-part event series from KCRW to help small businesses in the food world get helpful information to aid in the recovery of Covid-19 setbacks. Join KCRW Business Reporter Benjamin Gottlieb for the first event on Monday, May 24th to discuss the most pressing issues on the minds of business owners today: How do I plan when the rules keep changing? What assistance is out there? How will local vs. state laws affect my business? How are others dealing with the labor shortage and staffing up for a full comeback? And so many more!
