A family-owned boutique had its grand opening this past weekend â making it the cityâs only clothing store.
Daisies N Denim owner Raquel Ruvo, a Taft native, said having her own business has long been a personal aspiration. Ruvo has also wanted her city to be more independent.
âWeâve always had to go to travel to Corpus, to Portland, to Calallen to do any type of shopping,â Ruvo said, mentioning Corpus Christi construction. âQuite frankly, itâs not always convenient.â
