Question

Cracker Barrel is in trouble after trying to update its brand with a new, simpler logo, a different menu, and modern store decorations. Many longtime customers are unhappy because they feel these changes have forgotten the company’s traditional identity. After the new logo was shown on August 19th, the company lost almost $100 million in stock value. Now, Cracker Barrel needs to find a way to attract younger customers while still keeping the old-fashioned charm that their loyal customers love. The company is changing its brand to get more customers after seeing a 4% drop in visitors in the second quarter of 2024. Sarah Moore, the Chief Marketing Officer, says that Cracker Barrel still believes in "country hospitality," but wants to make its look more modern. Finding a way to combine its old-fashioned roots with a fresh style will be important for the company to regain customer trust and fix its recent problems. The company's decisions caused a big fight online and a wider debate about different ideas. The business must now be careful to handle the negative feedback. This is to avoid upsetting their current customers, while also trying to get new, younger people to eat there.
