Bobby Maier, owner of Culver's of Peru, was one of the few franchise partners across the country chosen to receive the Restaurant Pride Award from Culver Franchising System.

As the chain has grown, Culver's has become known for its hospitality and restaurant cleanliness.

The Restaurant Pride Award recognizes Culver's franchise partners who meet the highest standards of excellence for keeping their restaurants clean and inviting. CFSI representatives completed a system-wide review of more than 400 restaurants to rate the best at maintaining each restaurants' cleanliness. Twenty Culver's across the country earned the Pride Award this year.

"Not only do we pride ourselves on doing it right for our guests by offering a quality meal, we also rate ourselves on the way we present our restaurants," said Craig Culver, co-founder of Culver's. "Bobby and his team deserve the Pride Award for going above and beyond to provide a clean, hygienic restaurant for our loyal guests."
