I’m not saying that they have to have a lot of restaurant experience, but that they have a like-minded vision.”Darden also touches on how the success of MOOYAH throughout the years, and specifically during the pandemic, is a testament to the Franchise Owners’ involvement in their communities. “When a community backs a business, it can survive anything,” Darden said to Dhillion.
