Edinson Arenas

Edinson participated in the 10,000 Small Businesses program to learn more about the quantitative side of his business — creating a plan, getting his numbers in line and managing for growth. But it was the personal side that made the biggest difference. In his family-operated business, learning how to help his employees grow along with the company was even more rewarding than an increase in sales. Plus, he connected with Nicole of Foodbellies, a 10,000 Small Businesses graduate. Together, they plan to take Azteca Mexican Candy international. First up? Colombia.
