Sortis Holdings Now Owns Several Portland Independent Restaurants | Eater Portland

"As a hospitality group whose restaurants (including Ava Gene’s, Tusk, Cicoria, and the now-closed Woodsman Tavern) were bought by Sortis, Submarine faced accusations about workplace misconduct and attempted to respond by working with Apron Equity and bolstering HR; after the Sortis acquisition, operations staff like Brookes Decker say they are working to maintain each brand’s identity, keep teams intact, and make benefits more uniform while also increasing upper-management presence in restaurants." - Alice Wolfe
