“For small businesses, this is devastating. For businesses in January, this is even more devastating. We are heartbroken. As we try to pick up the pieces of this… Send love,” they said.
In January, the store called on those who wanted to help to support their own and other small businesses, saying the first six weeks of the year are the toughest for the grocery and retail industry.
The charcuterie concept’s 2,063-square-foot store opened last month in the former Southern Pressed Juicery space near Michael’s, the Charlotte Business Journal reported.
