2008 Fast Casual Restaurant Top 100 Movers & Shakers
As for most industry watchers, culminating the very best of the breed in a fast-growing segment is often a difficult task. With more than 600 fast casual concepts in the half-trillion-dollar restaurant industry, paring the list down to just 100 is not for the faint of heart.
This year’s top spot goes to Au Bon Pain. Our choice was a close one, with Café Express, Camille’s, Qdoba and Panera rounding out the top five. Panera has held the top spot before, while Camille’s and Qdoba have been in the top five for three years running.
The choice boiled down to the creative portion tactics Au Bon Pain implemented this year, along with the brand’s aggressive growth plan and stellar management team.
