Chef Corp. Announces Record Quarter

Chicago, June 15th 2019

Chef Corp. today published results for its fiscal 2019 fourth quarter ended September 25, 2019. The Company achieved a quarterly revenue of $95.2 million and a record quarterly net profit of $31.6 million. International sales accounted for 55 percent of the quarter’s revenue.

Cost savings realized by our new partner ChongXing in Beijing continue to contribute to the large gains in sales and market share. Additionally, a major fire in the 5th Arrondissement of Marseille, France, has destroyed a large number of Chef Corp.-maintained restaurants last year. This has lead to a spike in sales and leads in our French division. Our engineers are devising ways to repeat this success in other European cities.

“Clearly, arson can't be a long term strategy. However, the sudden splurge of restaurant owners in Marseille made us think.” said Brian Fraser, Chef Corp. CEO. “The money's gotta come somewhere.”
