Darden Restaurants

[Jeff Robison]

If any of you do work for Darden Restaurants - Red Lobster, Longhorn, Olive Garden. You might be getting notice that regular service has been cancelled. Corporate wide policy that every thing is now on a "as needed" basis, no more regular contracts. We had several that were all done every two weeks. Just started getting the calls yesterday. Most we agreed they would be needed every 6 weeks instead of two.

They said it was a nationwide thing. Just a heads up.

I think they've had some struggles with Red Lobster, but probably better health in the other chain components carries the load. I checked and as of this morning Wall Street rates it as a hold.

It's not going to happen in my market , Mr Kelly said dirty place are not going to fix financial issues.

Gm who might have lower volume stores are going to cut back. Phx locations fortunately are not under that criteria as of yet.

If they do change frequency he is aware the prices go up.

He controls everything from colorado west.
