At Annmarie’s Boutique we got a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to build and grow a retail business.

From its beginnings in Tipton to its current space in Kokomo, Annmarie’s has continued to evolve. Ann has built her business around offering a boutique experience while keeping prices accessible, creating value for her customers and earning their loyalty.

A highlight of the visit was learning more about the Upper Level, an affordable event space they’ve created and now rent out to the community, adding another layer to the business

Ann shared what it really looks like behind the scenes...staying disciplined, reinvesting into the business, and making decisions that support long-term growth.
