Construction Concepts' Approach

The Bayou City's magnetic attraction extends beyond its citizens, capturing businesses nationwide and transforming the landscape. It finally gives Houston the recognition it deserves, particularly for its culinary sector and remarkable growth. According to Joshua Weisman, the Chief Executive Officer of Construction Concepts, a commercial construction company based in Houston, the many populations in this area immediately correlate to the various types of available food.

Moreover, the building company that has won multiple awards is well-versed in the hospitality industry, aside from receiving 14 Houston Business Journal Landmark Finalist nominations across three distinct categories, such as the 2023 Best Restaurant Award for Burger Bodega. Accordingly, the Construction Concepts crew has impacted several of Houston's most prestigious dining venues.

Restaurants such as The Original Ninfa's, Antone's, and Torchy's Tacos were all built by Construction Concepts. They have also been utilized by restaurant groups that are located outside of Houston and Texas, such as Daily Dose Hospitality, which operates Bosscat Kitchen + Libations and TEN Sushi, Atlas Restaurant Group that will soon be opening Marmo, Loch Bar, and Azumi, and Sof Hospitality which operates Doris Metropolitan, Hamsa, and Badolinan and is a semi-finalist for the James Beard Award for Outstanding Restaurateur of the Year this year.

For Construction Concepts, recognizing the customer's requirements is not only the beginning phase but also the core of their job. The company reportedly prioritizes establishing a connection with its clients, ensuring every project is under the client's objectives, and developing structures and solutions that help ensure the brand's success.

The client's character and trademark will be reflected throughout the building procedure due to the collaborative effort put forward. By methodically transforming ideas into concrete plans, the company's in-house architectural and design team emphasizes the design's practicality and aesthetic appeal.

The Impact of Dining Establishments on Houston's Economic Recovery

The hospitality sector is an essential component of Houston's economy since it is responsible for employing hundreds of thousands of people across the region and contributing billions of dollars to the city's economy. 

According to the OpenTable restaurant and reservation platform, Houston's hunger is the most striking economic sign of the city's growth. Through the end of September and the beginning of October, the number of seated diners at Houston restaurants was 19.5% higher than during the same period in 2019 before the pandemic hit.

The Restaurant Revitalization Fund Program, which awarded grants of up to $5 million to restaurants and other businesses that suffered losses due to the epidemic, was another source of relief for the industry. This program, which the Small Business Administration administered, was worth $28.6 billion.

Thus, a promising sign for the local recovery is the increase in the number of people working in the leisure and hospitality industries and the number of Houstonians dining out. Also, several people of Houston consider the city's renowned bar and restaurant culture a source of cultural pride and a shared third place.
