U.S. restaurants continue to struggle amid COVID-19 pandemic

According to the National Restaurant Association, between March of 2020 and January of this year, more than 110,000 U.S. restaurants had to close.

The industry lost roughly 250 billion dollars in revenue. Restaurants that have managed to hang on are now pinning their hopes on a new round of stimulus designed specifically for the industry that, unlike last year’s programs, doesn’t have many strings attached.
