Twenty restaurants would entail how many employees, do you suspect? Let's be very conservative, and assume that each restaurant has a dozen workers (it's likely many more than that). You've got 240 employees. You're not really a small business in any genuine sense anymore. Your revenue is probably running into the tens of millions of dollars per anum. Relative to large businesses, are your workers being compensated well relative to the value they are producing? Almost certainly not.
