Name: Theresa Davis
Business name: Quality Wear Center
Business location: Preston Street, Class Jewelry Shop, Buchanan
Theresa and her husband Matthew moved to Buchanan after getting married in 1996. She wanted to reopen the frozen fish shop that she had owned outside of Monrovia, but discovered that there was not a market for it in Buchanan, given the availability of fresh fish. Instead, she decided to go into the used clothing business and has been doing it ever since.
Theresa appreciated the business management taught to her when she joined LEAD in 2006 and she has successfully repaid two loans. With the income from her business Theresa is sending her three children to school.
Number of employees: 3
When established: 1999
Startup capital: $500 USD
Opportunity for growth: “I am currently joining with several other used clothes dealers and we are in the process of importing our own container of used clothing to allow for wider profit margins.”
Theresa would like to build a permanent shop and expand to multiple locations.
