Perkins Restaurant & Bakery

Perkins Restaurant and Bakery is a family-style restaurant that offers moderately priced meals. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner with many favorites from their original bakery items to delicious desserts. Perkins & Marie Callender's has been in the business of serving up quality food for over 50 years.

The restaurant industry is a major source of employment in the United States. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 14.8 million people employed in food service and accommodations as of May 2011, accounting for 10% of total non-farm payroll employment (Bureau of Labor Statistics 2012). While many people enjoy working in restaurants, it can be hard work for low pay with long hours. In addition to these difficulties are problems such as sexual harassment from customers or co-workers and racial discrimination by management. As this article discusses, "the restaurant industry has been one that has had a reputation not only for being difficult but also discriminatory." Perkins Restaurant & Bakery was founded on the idea that everyone should have access to good quality food at an affordable price without sacrificing their dignity or basic rights on the job.

The franchisor is Perkins LLC, a Delaware limited liability company incorporated on September 26, 2019. Its principal place of business is 5901-B Peachtree Dunwoody Road, Suite 450, Sandy Springs, Georgia 30328. Elysium Management LLC ultimately controls Perkins.
