Interview with Southern Style Car Wash
By: Deborah Melton
I have been hired to
handle the desert department at Southern Style Car Wash. It is a car wash and a
restaurant combination. It is an establishment that prides itself on the
hospitality and friendly services offered there. At this particular business
they offer certain specials and deals to people who buy certain things, for
example on Fridays people receive a free car wash with the purchase of certain
meals. The family that owns the business is very militarily supportive so they
offer free meals daily to any and all veterans. They have people who specialize
in the entertainment and care of children, with a department where your kids
can hang out while you and your spouse have a date night. The restaurant
portion specializes in “southern” foods, such as fried chicken, homemade fries
and chips, mashed potatoes, potato salad, baby back ribs, pork chops,
bratwurst, and many more. They are a family oriented business. They also
deliver food to a thirty mile radius surrounding the area of the location. They
operate under the main owner Sabra and her ideas on how it works. So far the
Southern Style Car Wash has been successful in all areas in their business. The
name of the Southern Style Car Wash was created because they specialize in
southern foods and wash your car and do it with southern hospitality. The color
scheme is red and black because red is a color that when put through studies it
makes people want to eat and it is also the owners favorite color. The logo
which is used is a chicken delivering food in a red car which symbolizes that
the business also delivers food to a thirty mile radius. All the delivery
vehicles are equipped with a refrigerator and a warmer to keep your food hot
and your drinks cold. They are decorated with the logo located on the drivers
and passenger doors, and are all painted red with the business name and contact
info on the hood and back of the vehicle.
It is not like a typical fast food establishment, you can have your
orders done like in a fast food restaurant but you can also have a nice family
meal where you are not too cramped in your seat. You may have your food any way
you please and you can even reserve a special table to make sure there is room.
They also have a party room for events such as birthdays, anniversaries, and
any moment you wish to celebrate for. They cater to weddings and parties as
well. Thanks to adding me on to their staff they now have an excellent bakery
department that specializes in cupcakes, cookies, and birthday cakes for parties
and sometimes weddings. The Southern Style Car Wash celebrates many events such
as Presidents Day, Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, Valentines Day, and New Year’s
Day. Our building is decorated with comfortable seats and tables, and roomy
booths. This wonderful business is to be located in Shelby North Carolina and
is hopeful to benefit the city of Shelby. Once fully established it will be an
amazing addition to this town and will help people take care of two things in
one and have fun getting it done. We hope to get plenty of citizens to come and
visit us and their friends to do the same. The main concern we have found
refers to the smell that stagnated water creates but we reassure our customers
that we have found an energy efficient way to cleanse the water so that the
smell does not interfere with the customers trying to enjoy their meals. In all
it is a great establishment and a very successful business.
