An old family recipe has landed an entrepreneur a major deal with Sam’s Club. Nailah Ellis-Brown, the creator of Ellis Island Tea, inked a national distribution deal with the wholesale store, Rolling Out reported.
Coming from Detroit, she says she always was determined to not let her circumstances define her and knew that she couldn’t wait for opportunities to come her way and had to create them herself. “Growing up in Detroit, I knew nothing was going to be handed to me. I expected doors to be closed and knew I would need to work hard and never take ‘no’ for an answer,” she said in a statement according to BlackNews.com. “I’ve heard ‘no’ but I haven’t let that stand in my way. There is always a way forward.”
Under the deal with Sam’s Club, her family’s Jamaican tea will be bottled and sold at almost every one of their stores across the nation.
