โค๏ธ๐ค IMPORTANT UPDATE โ BILTONG BUDDY ๐คโค๏ธ
๐ง BRIDGE CLOSURE & SHOP UPDATE ๐ง
Unfortunately, with the bridge being closed and all the disruption around Kendal at the moment, things have become extremely difficult for us. ๐
We're having huge issues just trying to get to the shop ourselves, and we're not sure how many of our customers are also struggling to get into town.
The shop has been extremely quiet, and unfortunately, as a small family-run business, we simply cannot afford to keep paying staff to work when we're not even making enough in sales to cover their wages, never mind the other running costs of keeping the shop open.
โค๏ธ We've therefore made the difficult decision to close for the rest of today (Tuesday) and all day tomorrow (Wednesday)as this is our closed day.
We will be open as per normal On Thursday and Friday but we really need your support.
This isn't a decision we've made lightly, but sometimes we have to make these tough calls to keep our little business going.
๐ฟ๐ฆ WE REALLY NEED YOUR SUPPORT! ๐ฟ๐ฆ
If you can make it into the shop when we're open, please pop in and support us.
๐ฆ If the bridge closure, roadworks and traffic are making it difficult to get to us, PLEASE consider ordering online instead!
Our website is open 24/7, and we can post your favourite biltong, droรซwors and South African goodies straight to your door via Royal Mail. ๐
Every single order makes a difference right now. Even if you can't visit us in person, ordering online helps us continue trading, pay our staff and cover our running costs during this difficult period.
We're really hoping things settle down soon, but in the meantime, thank you for sticking with us and supporting our little family-run business. โค๏ธ
We appreciate you all more than you know! ๐ฟ๐ฆ
โค๏ธ๐ค BILTONG BUDDY โ FAMILY FIRST, BILTONG ALWAYS! ๐คโค๏ธ
