After moving to Northeast Ohio from Ukraine, Zoriana Potopnyk and Zoriana Chepil met each other and started their floral business out of their garage. Now, they have a store in Ohio City.
CLEVELAND — Two young entrepreneurs are planting roots in Cleveland’s Ohio City neighborhood with their new flower and rental shop, Floral Room.“I dreamed about my own flower shop in Ukraine but my family moved to the United States,” she said. “I tried to do something here but it was so hard.”“It’s a pretty big Ukrainian community here so it wasn’t hard to find each other,” said Chepil.
“We sell it first for our family members and friends. As I said, the Ukrainian community is pretty big here, so it wasn’t hard to find people who need flowers,” said Chepil. “We want to share our flowers with our community here so people know what we have inside,” she said. “Everybody loves flowers.”Watch live and local news any time:
