Join us for a Q&A session with our guest Ashley McMakin, owner of Ashley Mac’s restaturants. This is a great opportunity to ask questions of a successful business owner and learn from her experiences.

OUR GUEST PRESENTER

Ashley McMakin attributes her love of food to the amazing cooking of her mom and grandmother. After graduating from the University of Alabama with a degree in marketing, Ashley spent a year in East Asia serving with Campus Crusade for Christ. She got her start in the food industry catering for friends, but within months the demand had increased so much, she left her job to pursue catering full time.

It wasn’t long before Ashley’s husband Andy joined her and in June of 2007 they officially opened for business in Bluff Park. A second location followed in November of 2008. As they continued to grow they opened their first dine-in location in the summer of 2010 and additional locations in Inverness, Riverchase, Homewood and Pizitz in 2012, 2015, 2018 and 2020 respectively.

Ashley gives God the credit for their success and is thankful for the staff and customers He continues to provide.
