"It's not just a store; it's an experience," Ericka Espinosa said. "It's like an adventure every day." The store aims to be a vibrant cultural hub for visitors.
Neely-Streit said, "Chicago is probably the most important Mexican-American city in the Midwest. So, we receive a lot of people who don't have a broader understanding of the culture than maybe the one Mexican restaurant in their hometown." This highlights the cultural significance of their business.
Ericka Espinosa shared, "You have to be brave. You have to be a very hardworking person, but, at the end, you can do everything you want." This speaks to the entrepreneurial spirit and determination.
Espinosa remarked, "Very huge opportunity to get your first little store downtown," emphasizing how their venture on Michigan Avenue is a significant step for minority-owned businesses.
