Self Identified Competition
Year Thirty, Zo Zo's and Have to have it all which are all local small clothing businesses. My business provides lower costed items than the others in my area and is size inclusive. My store is the Ladies Coop LLC. I named it that because a coop is a safe place for chickens and I want my shop to be a safe and comfortable place for all shoppers. As a young adult of bigger size, I know how uncomfortable it can be to shop for clothes and I want everyone to feel safe and have fun while finding their perfect fit. Costs in this day and age are higher and growing. I also want everyone to be able to afford the clothes they like and not feel discouraged about the pricing. Everyone she be able to buy what they like and feel the best in without spending extra funds that they may not have. I grew up admiring the girls in boutique style clothing without being able to wear any myself so my shop is for the girls like me. The girls whose parents or guardians can afford to let them wear what they want and desire.
