Sienna Wings Celebrates One-Year Anniversary During Black Business Month
MISSOURI CITY, TX (August 20, 2024) – As Black Business Month shines a spotlight on Black entrepreneurs nationwide, Sienna Wings proudly celebrates its one-year anniversary, marking a year of remarkable growth and success. Founded by 19-year-old CEO Tyla-Simone Crayton, Sienna Wings has quickly become a local favorite, serving over 5,000 customers and selling more than 10,000 items, generating over $150,000 in sales.
From humble beginnings in their home kitchen, where Tyla-Simone and her mother Monique Crayton first started selling wings on Fridays, to opening their first brick-and-mortar restaurant, Sienna Wings has maintained a steadfast commitment to quality and community. Located in the Harvest Market food court in Missouri City, TX, Sienna Wings has become a vibrant part of the local dining scene, offering a menu that includes their signature Sienna Sauce, infamous mac & cheese, and seasoned fries.
“As we celebrate our first year in business, we’re reminded of the incredible support we’ve received from our community,” said Tyla-Simone Crayton. “It’s a full-circle moment for us to operate our restaurant in the same area that supported our sauce from the beginning. We’re excited to continue growing and sharing our love for great food with even more people.
Black Business Month: A Time for Reflection and Celebration
August is Black Business Month, a time to recognize and celebrate the contributions of Black entrepreneurs across the country. For Sienna Wings, this month holds special significance as the business reflects on its journey from a small home-based operation to a thriving restaurant.
“Sienna Wings is more than just a restaurant; it’s a symbol of resilience, innovation, and community,” said Monique Crayton, Co-Founder of Sienna Wings. “We’re proud to be part of the broader narrative of Black entrepreneurship and to contribute to the economic vitality of our community.”
Pepsi Dig In Day: National Recognition and Local Impact
Adding to the excitement of this milestone, Sienna Wings has been selected as one of the top 5 winners to participate in Pepsi’s Dig In Day Block Party in Chicago, taking place from August 23-25, 2024. This event celebrates and supports Black-owned restaurants across the nation, giving them a platform to shine on a national stage.
“We’re thrilled to represent Houston and our community at Pepsi’s Dig In Day,” said Tyla-Simone. “This is an incredible opportunity to showcase our brand on a larger scale, and we’re honored to be part of this initiative.”
In conjunction with the Dig In Day celebration, Sienna Wings is offering a special promotion in Houston on August 24, 2024.
