Doug Dalton: Putting Employees First

by Monica Hoel

Doug Dalton (E&H ’94) has a lucrative business that is taking a hard hit during the pandemic: but he’s looking out for his employees.

Don’t miss this article in SFGATE about Doug Dalton (E&H Class of 1994) and his business partners. They own a string of bars and stores in San Francisco that have had to close or make adjustments during COVID-19 restrictions, but he’s doing his best to look out for his employees.

“A lot of businesses just immediately laid everyone off and that’s another route that could have been done with us. It just did not feel like the appropriate option for us.”
Doug Dalton
E&H Class of 1994
