The store, located at 1800 McFarland Boulevard East, Suite 434, kicked off the occasion with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, hosted by the Chamber of Commerce of West Alabama and featured a special appearance from Mayor Walt Maddox, who commended the business for continuing to be successful in Tuscaloosa.
"I love when we can see small businesses like this open up," Maddox said. "For me, it's not just about just opening a store, it means jobs, it means a hope for the future."
