Quality Local Foods and Skincare Products - Buy Local

Team Subkit -

Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Andrea and Jonathan Haskin, owners of Buy Local, located in Humble, TX, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

We create farmers' markets in areas that do not offer weekly access to local farmers and their products. We procure a team of organic farmers and artisans that produce high-quality, hand-crafted products. Our ideal customer lives within our community and wants to switch to locally produced foods, healthy snacks, and natural skincare. Everyone wants to reimagine cooking and eating and knowing where their food is from.

Tell us about yourself

We moved to our home and envisioned a quality market we could share with our community and neighbors. We would visit local markets and were excited to bring home farm fresh products to share with our growing family. Our motivation was to give a platform to local growers to create healthy relationships that could educate and feed our community.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

We are most grateful for our consistency, quality, and safe space for our community to learn and shop for local foods. It's exciting for our markets' purpose to be fulfilled by inspiring healthy habits.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

Our biggest hurdle is to have our efforts realized in order to gain the trust as a newly established business.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

Start! Be resilient and consistent. Believe in your vision, but be willing to adapt. Increase your knowledge and quality as much as possible.
