Rebrand Launch!
The next chapter of the Connecticut Restaurant & Hospitality Association is here! Today, we are excited to unveil our new brand identity — one that reflects the strength, diversity, and spirit of Connecticut’s hospitality community.
After expanding our portfolio to include hotels and lodging earlier this year, it was time for the next step. This refreshed brand reflects where the CRHA is today and where we’re headed, while bringing to life three commitments that have been at the heart of our work since 1961:
-
Amplifying the industry's voice
-
Celebrating the people and places behind it
-
Supporting the work of operators across the state
The rebrand was shaped on months of input from across Connecticut’s hospitality community, ensuring the industry's voice helped define how CRHA looks, sounds, and shows up across the state.
While the brand has evolved, what hasn’t changed is our commitment to advocating and supporting the people and businesses that makes Connecticut’s hospitality industry so special.
And we’ll continue to carry that spirit ahead into this next chapter. CRHA is, and always will be, a member driven association — the more voices we carry, the louder we become. We’re excited to continue this journey with you.
Our History
For more than six decades, the Connecticut Restaurant & Hospitality Association has grown alongside the industry it represents. Founded in 1961 by a group of restaurant operators seeking a stronger collective voice, the Association has evolved into a statewide organization representing the businesses, people, and communities that make Connecticut’s hospitality industry thrive.
