Fueling Greener and Healthier Neighborhoods Through a Marketplace | Shelley Green

Made Here: Small business stories and conversations with entrepreneurs

Shelley Green's path as a small business owner took a while to shape. Transitioning from a career in consulting, Shelley now proudly owns The Green Corner Store located in Little Rock, Arkansas. The Green Corner Store is a market that supports local makers, artisans, and micro-businesses that sell quality products that make our lives greener, safer and healthier. The Green Corner Store is a certified business of The Green Business Network, a program of Green America — the nation’s leading nonprofit in growing the green economy.

In this episode, Shelley talks to us about her journey and why the concept of an entrepreneur seemed elusive, or at least something she couldn’t relate to in the beginning. We also talk about the serendipitous moments in her life that gave her the idea for The Green Corner Store, as well as the setbacks she faced having started her business all the way back in 2009.
