Gerardo Marazriegos is the owner of mobile snow cone shop ‘Sno King, LLC.’ Gerardo first came to the SBDC in 2018 to receive assistance for a different type of business- real estate. However, he soon decided to sideline his original idea and start a mobile snow cone shop in Odessa. Gerardo received assistance from one of our consultants in creating a business plan and financial projections to start Snow King. After completion, Gerardo invested over $7,000 into the business and received $23,000 in a bank loan to purchase a trailer. Snow King officially opened in February 2019. Since then, Gerardo has hired three (3) additional employees and has greatly increased his customer base throughout Odessa and social media.
