Emily Onofry owns and operates Anderson Ave Boutique.
Q: Tell us about your business.
A: Hey y'all, I'm the owner of Anderson Ave Boutique. Anderson Ave offers women's clothing that fits the Southern classic style. We opened a year ago today - August 9, actually. And we opened our online store, and our online was doing so good that we decided to open up a brick and mortar here in Trussville.
Q: How did you get involved with the business?
A: So, it's always been a dream of mine to own my own boutique, and, instead of waiting, I decided to go ahead and open it while I was still young.
Q: What sets you apart from your competitors?
A: I don't really see the other boutiques in Trussville as competitors. I see them as coworkers, and I feel like we all have something different that we can offer to Trussville. And I hope that together we can all make Trussville a very fashionable place.
Q: What would your customers say they like about you?
A: I hope my customers say that I'm very welcoming and very helpful. I always love helping people pair outfits together and helping them feel comfortable in their outfits. I hope that they feel like that my store is a warm place that they can come in and shop.
Q: Give us your elevator pitch.
A: At Anderson Ave, we have a unique selection of fashion-forward, high-quality pieces that celebrate the grace and spirit of the Southern woman, whether you're searching for a stylish dress for a special occasion or for everyday essentials. We offer personalized service and timeless styles in every piece.I hope you all decide to come to Anderson Ave Boutique to discover how we blend tradition and trend-setting flair to elevate your wardrobe.
Q: Anything else you’d like to add?
A: I think my store is unique because the name Anderson is a family name to me and it's very special. Also, me and my mom do this together. We've always had a hobby of going boutique shopping, and now we've turned it into a store. So, the store is very important to me and I hope that y'all love it as much as I do and that y'all feel welcome to come shop at Anderson Ave.
