The Mission Statement, Goal, and Service Promise of Five Guys Burgers and Fries

The Five Guys mission statement, as simple as its menu, is aligned with the philosophy that if you're going to sell hamburgers and french fries in a restaurant industry that is crowded with hamburger-french-fries chains, you'd better do hamburgers and french fries better than anyone else. Simply stated, the mission statement of Five Guys Burgers and Fries is:

"We are in the business of selling burgers."

To expand on the obvious, the Five Guys also has a "goal":

"Five Guys goal is to sell the best quality burgers possible. To sell the best burger possible, we focus on Quality, Service, and Cleanliness."

Many customers have noticed a sign that hangs on the beverage machine at every Five Guys restaurant, which is sometimes referred to as a "mission statement," but is really more of a Service Promise:

"You the customer are the most important visitor on our premises.

"You are not dependent on us, we are dependent on you. You are not an outsider in our business – you are a part of it.

"We are not doing you a favor by serving you – you are doing us a favor by giving us the opportunity to do so."
