When Rowena Montoya and her husband saw their entrepreneurial transportation business grind to a halt as a result of tough economic times, both had to roll up their sleeves and start anew.
“When my husband, Frank, began a new job traveling to trade shows, he needed a way to grab attention and help build client relationships,” explains Rowena. “I had the perfect solution—I made him delicious, homemade caramels to share at his events. It wasn’t long before Frank was being asked where they could buy the delicious caramels. I saw the opportunity and stared building my business.”
