Lowlights

Other than reiterating Yum! Brands' statement on social media, The Habit did not publish a statement on their own website about supporting Black Lives Matter.

We scour the company’s website and official social media channels to determine what message they are sending around racial injustice, how they are communicating it, and whether their communications are perceived as genuine or performative.

Public statement: We verify that companies have made a formal statement regarding racial injustice.

Social media: We consider how a company uses their platform(s) beyond performative allyship.

Representation: For companies that have the opportunity to showcase diversity in their feed, we consider whether they have adequate Black representation and BIPOC representation across their models.

II. Public Commitment

The Habit Burger Grill has pledged a donation of 0.01% - 0.09% of annual revenue towards racial injustice, specifically for Black lives. Additionally, The Habit Burger Grill has engaged in actions that advance racial justice and/or uplift BIPOC communities, such as partnerships with nonprofits or mission-based organizations that advance racial justice and/or uplift BIPOC communities, and matching donations to a broad range of qualifying organizations. The Habit Burger Grill is also an advocate for the LGBTQ+ community.

III. External Communications

The Habit Burger Grill has issued a public statement on social media addressing racial injustice that explicitly stated "Black Lives Matter." Since June 2020, 0.1% - 9% of the brand's social media content has been centered around racial injustice having only posted a "Blackout Tuesday" post. While the brand does not regularly feature models in their social media posts, there is little to no evidence of additional actions the brand takes to show support of the LGBTQ+ and other marginalized communities.
