On behalf of the entire Olive Garden family, Congratulations!
We are excited to welcome you to the Italy Cultural Immersion Trip – an exclusive opportunity for Olive Garden leaders to experience our Italian- inspired roots firsthand through an immersive cultural experience.
Italy, Family, Value is our brand DNA. Our hope is that during this trip, you will have a chance to truly connect with the inspiration for our brand…the beautiful, historical country of Italy. Perhaps your greatest moments will come from the warmth and spirit demonstrated by the people you meet. If this is your first trip to Italy, be prepared: this experience can alter the way you look at life, and your memories will be a source of inspiration long after you’ve returned home.
We look forward to welcoming you in Italy! Thank you for all you do!
Safe Travels – Buon Viaggio!
John Wilkerson, President and Shane Elrod, SVP Brand Operations
