We are living in very unprecedented times and the COVID-19 outbreak has impacted every part of our daily lives. Many of the activities we all used to do have been put on pause. This has drastically impacted businesses, with many small businesses having to cut hours, employees, and even close their doors altogether. It’s in times like these that we have to do what we can to support our local businesses. Here at The Burnette Agency we wanted to provide you with some of our favorite local businesses and how you can help support them!
Abbadabba’s has been Atlanta’s premier source for comfortable footwear since 1986. They have a passion for footwear and a love for their customers. Even though their 3 locations might be closed due to COVID-19, they are still doing everything they can to better serve Atlanta. They are now taking phone orders, offering curbside pickup, and will ship directly to you! Experience their outstanding customer service and give them a call at 844-474-6374.
Fellini’s Pizza is a local chain that provides Atlanta with no fuss pizza in a laid back atmosphere. Their many locations across Atlanta make Fellini’s Pizza a joint you just can’t miss. Lucky for us, they are now offering curbside pickup! From 11:30 am - 9 pm, you can call your favorite Fellini’s pizza location to place and pay for your order, then all you have to do is show up and pick up! This is a great way to continue to practice social distancing while taking a break from those leftovers in the fridge.
Storico Fresco started in the basement of a house in Atlanta and has turned into an Italian favorite! They pride themselves in offering the spirit, culture, and love of Italy right here in Atlanta. While we are missing their unique dining experience, this doesn’t mean you have to miss out on their authentic dishes. They are thanking the Atlanta community by offering 20% off ALL takeout menu items and 50% off ALL wine bottles. They are also offering curbside pickup and contactless transactions! Call them at 404-500-2181 to place your order today!
The Georgia Aquarium might not be small, but this Atlanta staple still needs love. Even though the aquarium might be closed, you can still find live feeds from each exhibit on their website! It’s such a fun and easy way to pass a little time, and if you find yourself suddenly having to plan school lessons for your little one, how about planning a virtual trip to the aquarium? They are even offering online resources to help your little ones learn all about the animals and oceans from afar! While you are on their website, help support the aquarium by buying a ticket for a future visit or do your part by donating to the aquarium. You can even choose where your donation will go. Choose between research and conservation, educational programs, military salute, or general operating fund!
While we have only skimmed the surface of local Atlanta businesses to support, we hope you will continue to support your city! It’s worth noting that most businesses sell gift cards online. Show a little support with a small gesture that will send some revenue their way! This is also a reassuring message to businesses that you will be shopping with them once everything returns to normal! Although the effects of COVID-19 are a reality for many, you can help do your part in supporting local businesses by a variety of small gestures. We challenge you to do just this and as always shop local.
