About the Project
Chicano-owned businesses take a vital role in the economy, driving the U.S. economy and contributing to job creation and growth. According to the Stanford Graduate School of Business, Latino-owned businesses experienced a 36% increase in total revenue in the past 4 years. New York City is also known as Puebla York, where the Mexican culture sprinkles around the 5 boroughs and is home to many immigrants and Mexican Americans that aspire to never lose a touch of home. These demographics of people are often bashed by political figures and stereotypes, my project will highlight two Mexican businesses ranging from food, art, and, culture to celebrate Puebla York and Mexicans around New York City.
