We, at The Cheesecake Factory, strive to achieve excellence in everything we do. For us, the notion of excellence means more than serving delicious food and providing an unparalleled dining experience. We understand that to be truly excellent we must contribute to the wellbeing of our staff, local communities and the rich environment we all share. We are committed to doing what is right, conducting ourselves with integrity and ensuring that our actions follow the highest ethical and professional standards.

We embrace corporate social responsibility with these values in mind. For us, the term “CSR” informs how we operate in relation not only to the environment but also to the food we serve, the staff members we employ, and the communities in which we are located. Becoming a sustainable company requires an open mind and a lot of hard work and patience. No company is 100% there yet! Every day, and at every level of our business, we continue to find ways to reduce our impact on the planet. We ask tough questions about how and where we can improve. These conversations force us to challenge the status quo—to innovate sustainably and look for ways to reduce our impact.
