Shake Shack

Stand For Something Good When Shake Shack started as a hot dog cart in New York City's Madison Square Park, our mission was simple: raise funds for a public art project. As we grew into a global business, our mission to Stand For Something Good expanded to include taking care of our team, sourcing premium ingredients from like-minded partners, designing our Shacks responsibly, supporting our communities through donations, events, and volunteering—and much more. Doing good is in our roots, a part of our DNA since day one. 20 years later, we're still continuing to expand and evolve our mission to Stand For Something Good in everything we do. We Enrich Our Neighborhoods Every Shack is a reflection of the community it's a part of, from partnering with local artists and ingredient purveyors, to hosting fundraisers with local non profit partners and school groups. We're committed to sharing key mile markers as we continue to grow. We're proud of what our team's been able to accomplish in the past year. 2,800+ internal promotions With 56% going to women and 73% going to people of color, almost double the number of promotions from 2020 100% score on Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index Earned for the fourth year in a row for our support of the LGBTQ+ community in the workplace 100% recycled fiber To-GoBags Transitioned TO GO Bags to be produced with 100% recycled fiber, materialized by 95% PCR content.
