In this episode, we chat with Coco and Jessica at Enriquez Creations in Niles, where we learn how a hobby blossomed into a thriving family business. Including the name "El Puesto" in honor of Coco's grandfather, the shop's journey is a testament to the importance of adapting to community needs. From adjusting store hours to meet local business trends to sharing stories of cultural connections, Coco and Jessica's testament paints a vivid picture of personal passion and community enrichment.
We hear from them of their imports from Mexico, emphasizing the personal connections and cultural significance of handmade goods. Hear touching stories of supporting street vendors and the meaningful traditions behind items like Oaxaca's alebrijes. Alongside tales of navigating the balance between storefront operations and local fairs, this episode celebrates the joy of cultural appreciation and the resilient spirit of family-run businesses.
