Stand for Something Good
With its fresh, simple, high-quality food at a great value, Shake Shack is a fun and lively community gathering place with widespread appeal. What began as a philanthropic hot dog cart in Madison Square Park back in 2001, Shake Shack has grown into a global community of like-minded purveyors who place deep care and thought in doing social good. In Manila, Shake Shack has kicked off its Share the Shack campaign earlier this year, which aims to inspire Filipinos through good food and the Filipino shared value of Bayanihan in this time
of the pandemic.
From October 27 to November 2, every purchase of a Chick’n Shack at Shake Shack Greenbelt will contribute a P100 donation towards Ayala Foundation’s “Your Support, Their Future,” a campaign to benefit Filipino students affected by Covid-19 by providing internet access allowance for a year. The beneficiaries will include 500 elementary and high school students from Metro Manila, Batangas, Palawan, Cavite, and Mindoro, all of whom are currently supported by the Ayala Foundation.
Shake Shack Greenbelt 5 – Modern Design Woven with Filipino Tradition
The first Shack to feature Filipiniana elements throughout its design, Shake Shack has collaborated with local designers to make Shake Shack Greenbelt a distinct community gathering place.
Inspired by the texture and lightness of the Philippine handwoven mat or banig, Shake Shack Greenbelt uses natural materials such as rattan and timber, affording a rhythmical pattern to space. This Shack’s feature element is its pendant lamps, handcrafted and handwoven out of Arurog vine by Hacienda Crafts. Composed of a group of weavers (mostly women!) and artisan individuals based in Negros Island with a mission to provide sustainable livelihood to the Negrenses, Hacienda Crafts utilizes materials sourced from local communities and
provides training for its weavers. They continue to uphold the value of traditional arts and crafts as they incorporate utilitarian crafts like basket making, fishnet weaving, loom weaving, and welding into their creative designs, available both here and abroad.
Shake Shack Greenbelt will also have an adequate alfresco space that seamlessly integrates the indoors with the outdoors, offering a quick respite from the city’s bustle.
Specialty Food Retailers, Inc. (SFRI) is the exclusive franchise holder of Shake Shack in the Philippines. SFRI is a member of the SSI Group.
