Welcome to The Gastro Business...

In the coming months we hope to use this space as a place to examine how socio-economic realities and business decisions in financial markets have causal effects, both large and small, on what we eat. Whether we shop for a meal to cook at home for ourselves or choose to have one placed on a table in front of us at a restaurant, our tastes and limitations of choice are being dictated to us by a subtle deluge of market forces that, at first glance, would seem entirely unrelated to the business of food.
Our palates, perceptions and pocketbooks are impacted daily by world events that could have occurred months, or even years, previously.
Or ones that occurred that morning.
By tracking these events and their effects, we can watch them seep inevitably onto our dinner tables from a much more informed perspective.
We hope you'll join us.
-The Editors


Welcome
