El Latino, a San Diego-based Spanish-language newspaper operated by Fanny Miller for the past 33 years, has opened a 2,500-square-foot retail storefront in Chula Vista where women can rent space and sell jewelry, art, hats, clothing and health products on consignment.

The store at 1105 Broadway, Suite 206, is called Celebrando Latinas Boutique, named after the annual Celebrando Latinas, a conference for Latina women El Latino has presented since 2010. The store opened in late February.
"Think of the store as a business incubator for women to show their products," Miller told Times of San Diego. "Celebrando Latinas Boutique is a new concept of collective sales that will allow micro-entrepreneurs to have a space to promote their products to the community. We are extremely excited to offer this model of shared space for entrepreneur products."
