Mac's Speed Shop
Charlotte's South End location
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - August 3, 2021 - (Newswire.com)
Brisket Burnt Ends are a very good thing at a smokin' restaurant like Mac's Speed Shop. Employee burnout is not. So on Monday, Aug. 9, all Mac's Speed Shop locations and SouthBound are closing its stores to give every team member a day off.
"Our people have been going way above and beyond to make our carry-out, eat-in and delivery business grow by leaps and bounds," said Mac's President Shang Skipper. "I've never seen a team so dedicated to bringing fun and good food back into the lives of people pent-up by the pandemic."
Early on in the pandemic, Mac's found and promoted new delivery partners through web carousels, pop-ups, and social media platforms. They rolled out a new point-of-sale system more geared toward take-out and delivery. And added a third-party technology platform to fire every ticket directly into the kitchen. At every stage of innovation, Mac's employees stepped up, learned fast, and gave back to the communities where they worked through Mac's Give Back Program.
"Our employees have given us 110+ percent, and now we want to give them a little something back with a much-needed break," Skipper said.
Mac's has locally-owned-and-operated North Carolina stores in Charlotte's South End and Steele Creek neighborhoods, Matthews, Lake Norman, Greensboro, Fayetteville and Wilmington, as well as in Greenville, S.C.
