Red Lobster is a series of restaurants founded and operated by Bill Darden. Our head office is in Florida, with offices in Japan, the United Arab Emirates and Canada. Red lobster has about 698 branches. The company was founded in 1968 to provide seafood to Americans. The company succeeded in introducing fresh and new foods to customers. These fresh dishes spread and accelerate the development of the company, in the 1980s the company began business in Canada.

In this way, the needs of consumers are met and corporate skills are improved. The third step is to remodel the restaurant, the goal is to be better than the average casual restaurant, but still friendly
