Purpose-Driven Hospitality

At Infuse, sustainability, social impact, and equity aren’t afterthoughts. They shape the way we operate, hire, source, and serve. Our commitment extends beyond the kitchen and into the community, driving a more thoughtful, inclusive, and future-focused approach to hospitality.

How We Do It Differently

We believe better food starts with better values. That means integrating sustainability, equity, and community investment into the core of every program we build.

Sustainability

We track our environmental impact at the unit level. Our waste diversion efforts have reduced landfill volume by up to 35% at select locations through composting and packaging overhauls, and we source locally wherever possible

Social Impact

Each property partners with at least one local organization. In Chicago, we host quarterly community dinners with unsold food from our cafés, and donate excess to nearby shelters through our Zero Waste Prep initiative.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

42% of our leadership team identifies as BIPOC or women, and we promote from within through structured mentorship and manager development tracks. Every team member completes DEI training within their first 90 days, with ongoing sessions tied to performance reviews.
