Uno Pizzeria and Grill Braces for Record-Breaking Thanksgiving Weekend

UNO Pizzeria & Grill

Uno Pizzeria and Grill, the iconic pizza chain, is preparing its restaurants for a major volume weekend around the Thanksgiving Day holiday. Many current social and economic factors are playing into the company’s optimistic outlook. For starters, Thanksgiving weekend historically lends itself to increased pizza take-out demand due to the focus on the celebratory and family-focused weekend of food. “While people are preparing and cooking for a family feast on Thanksgiving, they typically do not want to nor have time to prepare for other meals during the holiday weekend. Pizza is a perfect sharable food that plays into family and friends getting together”, stated Erik Frederick, CEO of Uno Pizzeria and Grill. “On the topic of family and friends getting together, Friendsgiving has become a bigger and bigger occasion over the last decade”, continued Frederick. The concept of Friendsgiving is friends getting together because they have returned home or they have extra free time around the holiday. These get-togethers usually revolve around food and typically involve a “pot luck” meal where each person brings their own dish to contribute. Again, the sharable nature and universal appeal of pizza make it a perfect food to bring to such a gathering. It has become a staple of Friendsgiving celebrations over the last couple of years. This year will be no different. But the biggest factor for the increased popularity of pizza is quite simply the economic environment in 2023. The inherent value of pizza makes it an attractive offering considering the economic conditions in the country this year. Prices of turkey and other Thanksgiving staples are soaring and availability is an added issue. Multiple trade magazines are reporting that many consumers, especially younger ones, are more value-conscious than ever. Bloomberg News states in its recent article titled “Inflation is Making Pizza More Appealing this Thanksgiving”, that in a recent survey “one in five Americans doubted whether they would have enough money to cover the cost of Thanksgiving this year” and that younger consumers would be “opting for meals of soup, salad and pizza”. Frederick added, “First of all, you know who loves pizza – everyone. So you can please everybody by ordering pizza. Secondly, as prices soar on all consumer goods, pizza remains a tremendous value to feed multiple people at a lower cost. We will be ready to feed the masses this coming Thanksgiving weekend whether it is with our legendary pizza, tasty wings and appetizers or other great menu items”. Who knows, maybe next year Uno Pizzeria and Grill will unveil the Thanksgiving dinner pizza with all the fixins’!! About UNO Pizzeria & Grill Based in Boston, Massachusetts, Uno Restaurant Holdings Corporation includes approximately 80 company-owned and franchised UNO Pizzeria & Grill restaurants located in 18 states, and the District of Columbia, India, and Saudi Arabia. UNO is all about connecting people over pizza – from its famous Chicago Deep Dish, which UNO invented in 1943, to its Chicago Thin Crust, to its gluten-free and vegan pizzas. The Company also operates Uno Foods, a consumer packaged-foods business which supplies supermarkets, airlines, movie theaters, hotels, airports, travel plazas, and schools, with both frozen and refrigerated UNO branded products.

Benzinga

Yoshitsu Co. Ltd. (NASDAQ: TKLF), the Japanese retailer and wholesaler of beauty and health products, home goods and food, leased its first 2,362-square-foot warehouse in London. Leasing the warehouse is a significant move for the company, which has been enhancing its warehouse operations and solidifying its customer services to support global expansion in Europe. The warehouse, at Unit 5, Hanover West Industrial Estate, 161 Acton Lane, London, NW10 7NB, started operating on Oct. 25. It can keep up to 100 categories of products and store up to 50,000 items every one to 1½ months. The London warehouse comes a few weeks after the company leased its first warehouse of about 4,150 square feet in Texas, U.S. The new warehouse will improve access to inventory and augment customer services in the European region, Yoshitsu Co. Ltd Principal Executive Officer Mei Kanayama said of the recent development. "With the warehouse operation in London, we expect to effectively fulfill the increasing demand in the European markets for our products, boost our revenue in the region and improve our operating efficiency," Kanayama said.

Revenue for the market is expected to reach $119.7 billion in 2022, with a growth projection of $145.8 billion for 2023. By adding a new warehouse in Europe, Yoshitsu may optimize its fulfillment process and serve more customers quickly by shortening the delivery time, which could result in the company becoming a major player in the region.

The organizer, TAICCA (Taiwan Creative Content Agency) attributes this increase, in part, to the extension of TCCF’s program from 5 to 11 days, and to the expanded pitching program with greater participation from international buyers.

CO2oons! NEW WEB3 CLIMATE CHANGE ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY LAUNCHES at COP27: The UNITED NATIONS CLIMATE CHANGE CONFERENCE

CO2oons

November 15, 2022 - Co-Founder & CEO, David Villaseñor, and Co-Founder Matteo Petrelli, today announced the launch of CO2oons, a new company born with the goal of changing the way people think about, and engage, with the climate change conversation. CO2oons will partner and collaborate with the world’s top brands to create consumer products, educational initiatives, films, serial content and events all centered around the company’s original IP: a population of creatures living in Earth’s near future, that have evolved out of the effects of climate change and are now the only living things on the planet. David Villaseñor, Co-Founder & CEO said: “The core of our idea is this: we will use entertainment to build a mainstream, recognized global brand in the climate arena that will inspire and connect with audiences in a way that only beloved characters and stories are able to do. We must find new and innovative ways to attract people to become involved in the fight to save our planet, and we believe that making the conversation entertaining could be an important part of the solution.” CO2oons’ leadership team includes: Co-founder & CEO David Villaseñor, also serving as Director of Operations of Earth Uprising International, a global youth-led climate justice organization founded by his daughter, internationally recognized teenage climate activist Alexandria Villaseñor; Pete Johnson, Co-founder & Chief Creative and Marketing Officer, most recently Global Head of Creative at The LEGO Agency; Ahmet Can, Co-founder & COO, 20-year veteran of the start-up world having scaled several global organizations with three successful exits; and Matteo Petrelli, Co-founder and CEO of Exeest, a leading B2B platform for licensing/purchasing of film and TV rights. The announcement was made from the stage during the CO2oons hosted panel, “ Blockchain, Climate, Corporations and Regulations” at The Earth Day Pavillion during the COP27 conference. CO2oons brought together panelists Rev. Lennox Yearwood Jr, CEO of Hip Hop Caucus and Senior Advisor of Bloomberg Philanthropies; AY Young, climate activist, producer, singer and entrepreneur; and Miles Austin, CEO of Hyphen Global AG, Managing Director of CPG Capital to discuss the intersections, the misconceptions, the upcoming regulations and the potential possibilities Web3 can bring to climate change. Panelists shared perspectives on the role of Fortune 500 companies and what they could be doing to help fight the climate crisis, the real impacts that Blockchains have and will have in the environmental space, and the role that entertainment and a more engaging way of communicating can have. CO2oons is hosting a second panel on November 17th at 11am GMT+2 at the Earth Day Pavillion: “CO2oons! Bringing the Youth Climate Movement to Web3”, featuring Steve Wallace, Official Institutions & Advocacy, Global Lead at Polygon Technology; Alexandria Villasenōr, Co-founder of U.S. Climate Strikes and Earth Uprising International; Seb Lindner, co-founder of Web3daily; and Matteo Petrelli, co-founder of Co2oons. Both panels can be viewed here. The idea behind CO2oons is to create an imaginary world that can attract and entertain global audiences, using many forms of storytelling, and help raise awareness about the status of our climate (in a fun and engaging way!) With CO2oons, we’ve created an IP that will first launch as an NFT collection and then evolve to become much more. We will partner and collaborate with the world’s top brands to create consumer products, educational initiatives, films, serial content, events and much more. We want our creatures everywhere, raising awareness and inspiring action not just from NGOs, activists and a small group of corporations, but from the largest audience possible. We believe that by making the conversation fun we will be able to reach a broader audience and to capture the interest of more people, in a more personal and active way.
