What does a CNC shop do?

It's not a “shop” like a store, but rather a room or building containing machinery where machinists and other technical staff make things. The shop can be part of a large factory or a room in the premises of a small business. The “machines” in question are pieces of equipment with cutting tools.

What is a CNC in business?

Many products that businesses use and sell are made through a highly precise process called computer numerical control (CNC) machining. CNC machining businesses specialize in this type of manufacturing, which uses computer-controlled machines to produce products with a high degree of accuracy.
