The Challenge

Milano Restaurants International Corporation is a restaurant company specializing in building strong franchises and developing and operating multiple restaurant concepts. Milano’s diverse portfolio proves their unwavering commitment to providing quality dining experiences by staying true to their core values.

Thanks to their streamline posting processes and ability to disperse on-brand content to their franchisees, they’ve been able to save time, uphold their brand integrity and positively increase their metrics.
