ATLANTA, June 03, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- McAlister’s Deli®, famous for its sweet tea and hospitality, is always brewing up new ways to give back to its dedicated fans and local communities who have been loyal to the brand for 30 years. This summer, McAlister’s Deli is supporting its local communities through its “Tea Town Showdown” campaign where local McAlister’s Deli restaurants will go head-to-head to see which locations have the biggest tea lovers. The top three winning restaurants will receive bragging rights, but more importantly, a donation to a local charity of their choice.
“Since we first opened our doors 30 years ago, our passion for sweet tea, good food and giving back to our local communities has been the foundation of our brand,” said Joe Guith, president of McAlister’s Deli. “To thank our fans and neighbors for three decades of support, we are thrilled to launch the Tea Town Showdown where we’ll be giving back throughout the summer.”
Tea Town Showdown (June 1-July 18)
McAlister’s Deli “Tea Town Showdown” is a friendly competition to determine which town truly loves its sweet tea the most. From June 1-July 18, fans are invited to vote for their town (local restaurant) to be crowned the “Tea Town Showdown” champions. The top three locations that receive the most votes will receive a donation to their local charity partner with first place receiving $10,000 plus the Tea Town Showdown trophy, second place $5,000 and third place $2,500.
In addition to the “Tea Town Showdown” competition, there will be great ways to score free delicious tea and goodies and give back to local communities throughout the campaign.
