Restaurant Week Greenville returns August 18-28, SCRLA encourages participation


From the SCRLA:


As the voice of the restaurant industry, the South Carolina Restaurant and Lodging Association is dedicated to promoting our world-class culinary and beverage community right here in South Carolina. Established in 2012 by the SCRLA, Restaurant Week South Carolina is an 11-day celebration of our state’s vibrant culinary scene. Restaurant Week gives local, regional, and national food lovers the opportunity to enjoy amazing values during brunch, lunch and/or dinner at a number of participating restaurants. Restaurant Week’s goal is to position South Carolina as one of the top culinary destinations in the nation by increasing awareness of the many dining opportunities available in the state, as well as stimulating business and revenue for restaurants. From fine to casual dining, participating restaurants will feature special menu items, promotions and discounts during Restaurant Week South Carolina.


This is the perfect time to find new customers, generate repeat business, and grow the bottom line. Our Restaurant Week campaigns are a powerful business tool that offers full “brand-to-hand” marketing stewardship year-round and to ensure ongoing success, we continually develop new promotional programs and encourage the spirit of innovation.

Restaurants aren’t the only business to benefit from Restaurant Week. It helps increase tourism, therefore increasing revenues for hotels, stores and other local businesses. We use the Restaurant Week campaign as a platform to showcase our state's restaurant diversity, while helping build its culinary reputation. Marketing efforts target consumers interested in food, beverages and travel.


Our Restaurant Week Toolkit

It all starts with marketing and advertising. We make sure Restaurant Week patrons are in-the-know. Whether they visit your website, ours, various social media outlets or simply dine out during the weeks leading up to the event... we’ve made it a priority to keep them informed.
