Interview with an Etailer - Vol. 6

I came across this cute site while surfing around, they are a fellow East Coaster with some cool products.. Check them out!

Company Name: Brooklyn Flavors
Scenting You and Your Home

Owner: Sophia Sylvester
Location: New York
Website: www.brooklynflavors.com


How long have you been in business: Brooklyn Flavors has been in business for about 1 year.

Tell us what you do: We make natural skin care products and scented soy candles. Most of
our skin care line is made with Shea butter.


How did you get started? Brooklyn Flavors was started because of a dry skin issue my family and I had especially during the winter. My children suffered so much, we decided to take them to the doctor and was told to get Eucerin cream but that didn't help. So I decided to make my own, that way I would be able to personalize it for their skin type. It worked! In the near future we will make hair care and pet care.

Do you have a specialty product line? What's so special about our product line is we decided to name them after some of the historical neighborhoods and streets of Brooklyn. We
also have a product called Brownstone for the beautiful brownstones houses in some neighborhoods.

Do you have an unusual product that you are the only one that has it? What makes my products unusual is so far no one in Brooklyn has named their products after their neighborhoods.

What are some things you are doing to help keeping going during this tough economy? We do a lot of street festivals during the summer months. That's what helps with advertising and through the tough economy. As hard as the economy is people still want and love handmade products, especially if they are made is Brooklyn.

You can sign up for their monthly newsletter for updates on the fragrance of the month and discounts.

Til Next Time!
