Fogo de Chao doesn’t build a site pipeline until it has three years of visibility into the development of general managers, CEO Barry McGowan tells Bloomberg Intelligence. In this episode of the Choppin’ It Up podcast, McGowan sits down with Michael Halen, BI’s senior restaurant and food service analyst, to explain how the company’s investments in its employees are fueling strong sales and traffic growth. McGowan also comments on Fogo de Chao’s acquisition by Bain Capital and explains how a unique service model drives best-in-class restaurant-level margin.
