Moe's Original BBQ to open
An Alabama restaurant chain is expanding in Peachtree Corners. Moe's Original BBQ is renovating space at 5005 Peachtree Parkway in the Wellington Center near Ingles and expects to be open in the coming months. Cousins Scott and Harris Carlock are opening the restaurant.
"I have been interested in this particular location for many years as a Moe's Original BBQ, due to it being a great location for a family restaurant that will service all of Peachtree Corners, Berkeley Lake and south Johns Creek," Harris said. The restaurant's signature dish is the pulled pork sandwich, best paired with the Bushwacker, a frozen, adult ice cream drink.

A second Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) was announced this month by the U.S. Small Business Administration and the U.S. Treasury, as the federal government attempts to get funding to the hardest hit businesses. Some due dates have been extended, and extremely low interest loans are available. There are grants for shuttered businesses, such as movie theaters and live entertainment venues and a set of provisions to assist commercial landlord and tenants.
