Unanimous Decision

LOS GATOS - In late 2022, Unite Strategies took on a client that owned an existing quick service restaurant (QSR) in Los Gatos and was looking to add a drive-through window. This was especially necessary to the owners to keep their business open during a difficult time with the Covid-19 shut down beginning in 2020 and not have to un-employ their loyal staff. Historically drive through windows on average can account for 60% to 70% of their business. Customers like the convenience of drive-through windows not just with QSRs but they can be found at such retailers as Walgreens, Starbucks and bank atm machines.

A drive through window had not been given permission to open and operate in Los Gatos since the 1980s!  Unite Strategies worked hard for their client and after several discussions with the Commissioners of the Los Gatos Planning Department their client won their application to build and open a drive-though window with a unanimous vote.  Now families with children and folks with physical challenges can easily find a warm meal without leaving their car.

Unite Strategies is committed to assisting clients in right sizing regulations.
