Little Spark Refill Shop
2020 INTERVIEW
Description of your Business
Little Spark Refill Shop is located at 19136 Old Detroit Road in Rocky River, Ohio 44116. It was originally known as the Better World Refill Shop and located in Lakewood Ohio. It’s mission then and now is dedicated to helping the community reduce their plastic waste, refill their own vessels with natural products and live more sustainably.
Share your recent business success!
I had a dream to open my own business one day but it seemed so complicated and too much work. With the help of SBDC at CSU, I was able to stay on track and open my business in 88 days!
How did the SBDC at CSU help you?
Jessica was able to give guidance and support through the process and help with the many questions that I had. It was helpful to get answers from a person who has been through the small business process vs on a search engine.
Have you recommended the SBDC to anyone?
Yes! Anyone who says they want to start a small business gets my personal recommendation to SBDC at CSU.
SUCCESS UPDATE: Little Spark Refill Shop recently expanded adding a location in Chagrin Falls, Ohio (49 West Orange Street).
