How I Built A $75 Million Restaurant Empire
Рет қаралды 722,134
3 жыл бұрынWhen Marcus Samuelsson was working as a chef in France, he was told that he’d never own a restaurant because there weren’t any Black-owned businesses with the ambition that he had. This propelled him to move to America where he had seen Black excellence and was motivated to bring his vision to life. Today that dream resides in Harlem and has become one of New York City’s most famous restaurants.
Born in Ethiopia, he was separated from his parents during the Civil War in 1974 and subsequently adopted by Swedish parents. After spending his entire youth cooking alongside his grandmother, he developed the chops to work in kitchens around the world. Since then he’s been an immigrant six times, but laid his roots in America where he opened 23 restaurants and employed 2,000 people under normal circumstances.
When Covid struck New York City he quickly turned his restaurant into a community kitchen and began donating meals to essential workers and some of the hardest hit communities of color. His efforts kept much of his staff employed and fed over 250,000 people in need.

@princessjazz5767 That sentiment comes from the sense that there is TOO much immigration. Obviously, that's possible. Over 3 million illegal border crossings under the Biden administration. It's great business for human traffickers, not so good for assimilation into American culture or wages when you have a landslide of low-skilled workers suddenly showing up in the labor market.

I feel good as it’s representing ppl and cuisine from all over the world! You promote those struggling less represented chefs and restaurateurs so ppl know their businesses. Keep it up brother. One more thing I like about you is that you never pretend to be someone else; you’re the real stuff who I think is not flashy (though you have real capacity to be so). You appreciate where you come from and is a simple guy! Thanks for what you did for ppl in this difficult time. Take care and god be with you all the way!

Okay! Did CNBC hire someone new to take over this series bc its gotten tremendously better! This is how all business owners should think. I've seen Marcus Samuelsson on cooking segments for morning shows. I've heard about Red Rooster and their long waits for a table pre COVID. The food in these clips looks amazing!!!
