Today we’d like to introduce you to Virgil Williams.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
I come from a long line of entrepreneurs so it was inevitable that I had my own business as well. The problem was figuring out what I wanted to start my business in. About this time last year, I had a vision I wanted to own a liquor store in the area I grew up in. So it was only right I had to find the best location on Cullen to execute my vision.
Has it been a smooth road?
Since this is my first business, I’m a learning process. I applied for my liquor license right before COVID affected businesses and the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission so I had additionally waiting time than expected. While waiting on my license to sell and purchase alcohol, I still had to maintain my storefront with no products to sell.
