Thank you for supporting us on this journey! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Many of you followed along from the very start of our website. Many of you took time to spread the word about us on social media and with your friends and family. Many of you ordered spices so many times that it could only mean you just wanted to help our small business, and to see us succeed. And that’s what made this such a difficult decision.
We opened the spice shop with the excitement to create something new, share our passion for Asian culture & foods, encourage healthy eating, and to give everyone fun, flavorful ideas for dishes to cook up at home. The spice shop gave us the means to do that full-time, and to connect with you even if it was just sending you a small package in the mail with a simple thank you note.
There were many surprises along the way, but we never expected so much kindness from people we had never met from all corners of the country and from around the world. All the sweet messages, writing to us about a recipe your family enjoyed, or a spice blend that you loved. We appreciated every kind word, and every thank you. But we are truly the thankful ones for your support of us and our little shop over the last few years.
We want to apologize to those of you who had contacted us with your suggestions and requests, whether it was for bulk or wholesale orders, or just a great product idea. We always appreciated you reaching out to us. We just never had the capacity to grow, working out of our small store and having to blend and package spices in a rented commercial kitchen.
We will close the shop on June 30th, but our recipe website will still be up, along with our social media accounts. We are not certain what the future holds just yet – for our work or for the website. We will most likely keep posting an occasional new recipe on the site, along with any updates. And for work, well, if anyone else has run your own business, and then headed back to normal employment, we would love to hear your thoughts about your experience.
Our spices and jars are getting low right now, so if you would like to place another order, we would recommend doing so as soon as possible. We will most likely run out of the most popular items before June 30th.
Thank you again for everything! We hope you have a wonderful summer!
Sincerely,
Reese & Mark
