The extended break wasn’t easy for Pretzel Bell, but Silvio says they’re ready to reopen. 

“We always knew we were going to come back, but we wanted to do it right,” Silvio said. “This break was tough, but it gave us the chance to open with the confidence and resources to support our staff while still giving our guests the service they expect.”
