We were lucky to catch up with Paris M recently and have shared our conversation below.

Paris, appreciate you joining us today. We’d love to go back in time and hear the story of how you came up with the name of your brand?

I wanted my name to be in my business name and one day I would have my shop named ParisPlaceLLC.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

On July 9, 2022, ParisPlaceLLC presented her very first pop up shop. This event was geared to specifically help other kids along with adults with businesses to get their products known and sold to the community and inspire other kids and adults to start their own business. Entrepreneurs included kids as young as 5 years old.

Paris sells lip gloss in 10 different flavors made by myself which are vegan and gluten-free, 8 different air freshener fragrances along with keychains, bracelets that she hand makes and T-Shirts with her logo. She started selling air fresheners and body oils at the age of 7 with her nana (grandma). She started this business because wanted to make products people will use every day.
