The Waterway Drive Thru Development in Cairo contains a number of food and beverage brands, along with residences and offices in the surrounding area. The Cinnabon drive-thru store in the development will fully open later this year under United Beverage & Food, which owns 38 Cinnabon stores in the Middle East. In fact, UBF is the brand s third largest franchise group globally.
SOUTH BEND â Render Meat & Potatoes has partnered with United Beverage and Stanz Foodservice in an effort to feed frontline workers.
Render co-owner Hilary Maich said the idea came when she noticed her business received helped from government loans, loyal customers and family during the pandemic and she wanted to do her part.
â(The business is) going in the right direction, so why not do something positive for others?â Maich said. âA lot of people have looked out for me at this time and I feel bad because we havenât been helping anyone, and we can.â
Beginning next week, Render employees will cook and donate 50 homemade meals every Tuesday and Wednesday to frontline workers and volunteers assisting at the vaccination site at Hedwig Memorial Center, 331 S. Scott St. in South Bend. Maich anticipates she will continue the donation for four weeks, but there is a chance it could be extended depending on logistics and donations.
When preparing to open a second location, Clara Miller was surprised at just how much ice cream she needed to make.
âIâve made ice cream almost every day last week,â Miller said. âOn Saturday, I made ice cream for 12 hours and itâs like it didnât even put a dent in it. ⦠Thereâs no end to it.â
As daunting as it may sound, Miller said, itâs a good thing and necessary in being ready for whatâs to come. She, along with daughter and co-owner Krista Berkey, will open Vanilla Bean Creamery in its Granger location this Saturday.
