FUDPUCKER'S BEACHSIDE BAR & GRILL, celebrating its 43rd Anniversary this year, is a historical landmark in the city of Destin (well, it isn't actually "registered" as a historical landmark, but it has been here for a long time and everyone pretty much knows where it is... so there!). Anyway... because we've been around for a long time, we have had thousands of employees who have spent time with us, some of whom have since gone on to pursue some pretty amazing career paths... lawyers, accountants, law enforcement officers, high school teachers, building contractors, business owners, military officers, and dozens of other pretty remarkable pursuits. For many of them, Fudpucker's was their very first job and they credit Fuds with giving them the foundation from where they launched their careers. Fudpucker's culture of focusing on employee development through constructive training has been a hallmark of the company's success and it continues that way to this day.
In fact, one of Fudpucker's partners in a sister business is a former Army Green Beret who after leaving the Army, ran a restaurant-theming-business for decades that opened and remodeled thousands of restaurants. Drawing upon his years as a Green Beret (which just so happens to be the World's Foremost Training Organization) and working with all of those restaurants, he brings to Fuds an extremely unique understanding of HOW to train and develop people in the hospitality industry. And, the core of his training philosophy is to develop LIFE SKILLS and apply those skills to their jobs. With this partner's background coupled with Fudpucker's 40+year culture of developing employees, we've implemented the most advanced training program of any hospitality business in the Florida Panhandle and that alone is why people should want to work here
