Sisters’ business expands to new heights

EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) -- Two sisters, Vanessa Ruiz and Liliana Cano, took a significant step at a young age by starting their own business.

Their journey began years ago when their grandmother fell ill, prompting her to help friends with healthier food options.

This initiative eventually led to their grandparents opening a healthy snack bar in Juarez.

Inspired by their family’s success, Ruiz and Cano worked as servers, saving money to open their own business five years ago.
