WorkShop Adventures

Projects

Beginning in 1996 ISUS founding partners worked with the Circle K International Team to develop foodservice for their Pacific Rim and Latin American partners. Projects occurred in Taiwan, Korea, Hong Kong, Mexico and the US. In each country we followed a similar development process creating leading-edge foodservice concepts appropriate to the host nations local contemporary culture and available resources. The Taiwan work is typical of what was done in each Circle K nation. more
