<\/a>\n\n\n\nEmployees all have important tasks as customers pour in. Alice Walker is the front counter employee and says that working at Palmetto Seafood has been such a wonderful work experience because of the character of owner, Addie J. Moultrie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moultrie helps out with customers when the shop gets busy usually during lunch and the dinner hour making sure each customer gets helped. Anthony Harrison, 22, works in the fish showcase, cooks and does prep work. Vicky Baskett, who has been working at the shop for 11 years serves as a supervisor and is responsible for prepping and frying many of the seafood takeout dinners. As she works filing the many to-go orders, Baskett jokes with other employees to keep smiles and laugher going on inside the store. Frank McDaniel, back team leader, is responsible for cutting fish due to customer request and getting market orders together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With customers always coming in, Palmetto Seafood rarely has a quiet moment. Employees are constantly helping customers, preparing fish for the showcase or taking a seafood to-go order. There is no short of community support in this shop from the time the store opens to closing at dusk takeout orders continue to pour in and fresh fish packed in ice are bought. The selection of fish and seafood range from frog legs to striped bass and throughout the day not just one type of fish is bought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Waverly community support and from other areas of Columbia has helped Palmetto Seafood thrive and employee dedication to satisfy the need of every customer is what keeps customers coming back day after day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
