Episode description

Each city has that local business hero, if you will. For Phoenix, that’s Sam Fox. Fresh off selling his company, Fox Restaurant Concepts, to Cheesecake Factory, Sam has created one of those brands that you just know when you are at one of his concepts. Don’t ask how, because the food is different at each one. Maybe it’s the quality, mixed with the service, tied in with the atmosphere, I have no freaking idea. But each spot he opens, kills it. He’s been around the valley here for quite some time, I even had a run in with him at one of my first jobs when I was in high school and subsequently later on in college when they awarded him the Entrepreneur of the Year award for our business school. He’s got his finger on a lot of stuff around here, and we’re lucky to have him. Ladies and gentlemen, Sam Fox for Collectors Gene Radio.
