Today we’d like to introduce you to Ebony Lewis.
Hi Ebony, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
Having a million and one ideas in my head on the business I’d like to hone in on I decided it was time to really make a decision on said ideas. I knew I wanted to be accessible and just wanted something different. I had been conflicted on starting a mobile bar business and since I wasn’t a licensed bartender I decided to think WHAT ELSE?! What else can be served on a mobile cart and then it hit me . . .CHARCUTERIE! Once I had the idea of charcuterie in my mind it was all I needed to hit the ground running. I started researching to see if this idea had been over saturated and to my pleasure there wasn’t many businesses that were similar. I am still in the very early phases of my business and its been less that 6 months that we have officially been open but things are looking good and I am excited to get through my first year in business.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It has been a smooth road for the most part being that there wasn’t a super ton of startup costs, but the costs do add up when you don’t having bookings flowing upon opening. Sourcing for startup grants has been a big struggle for me, but I stay hopeful and keep doing my research. Outside of that it has been fun and rewarding building the Luxe Grazing Table.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?

Before we let you go, we’ve got to ask if you have any advice for those who are just starting out?
Do not stress the things you cannot control, when an issue arises just take a deep breath and do what you can to resolve. Not everything gets solved in a day and be patient with yourself. I wish i had a better grasp at knowing how/where to get funding. Sourcing the entire business out of pocket has been costly to my personal life.
