A LETTER FROM CLARENCE OTIS, JR., CEO

A company’s character is revealed in what it does. At Darden Restaurants, we take our core value of being of service very seriously. For more than a decade, we’ve contributed millions of dollars, millions of meals and countless volunteer hours in communities all across North America.

I’m proud to be a part of a company that makes a positive difference in the lives of our guests, our employees and those in the communities where we live and work. We have done a lot of good work over the years through the Darden Restaurants Foundation, the Darden Environmental Trust, and our Community Alliance Project, which supports programs that foster diversity, fairness and inclusiveness, and we will continue to do even more.

Improving the quality of life wherever we do business is part of our heritage and culture, and is an indispensable part of achieving our mission—to be the best casual dining company now and for generations.
