Teacher Appreciation Restaurant Promotions

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Teriyaki Madness is Offering Educators Free Meals

— November 4, 2020 — Lifestyle
Teriyaki Madness is looking to thank hardworking teachers by launching a new promotion that allows consumers to take advantage of its Wok-Star Teacher Teriyaki Bar.

Through the promotion, consumers can choose to "pay half the cost of a full hot-lunch bar for a teachers at a school of their choice." After consumers pay for half of the meal, Teriyaki Madness will cover the rest of the cost. The Wok-Star Bar features the chain's different chicken offerings, along with plenty of stir-fried veggies that are serviced with rice and its house-made teriyaki sauce. The promotion will launch on October 27th, and will be available until December 18th.

Jodi Boyce, EVP of Marketing, spoke to the decision to launch the promotion, stating "I witnessed the back-to-school chaos firsthand with my sons who are in elementary and middle school and I knew we had to do something to help them stay sane and fed. With this Wok-Star Teacher Bar initiative, we’re hoping to make their hectic lives just a little better and bring them a dose of happiness to their day with a delicious lunch."
