America's SBDC at WTAMU's video: Still Austin Success Story - West Texas A M Small Business Development Center

Chris Seals started the first bourbon distillery in Austin, Texas since Prohibition. Now they are the largest whiskey facility in the entire state. Chris wanted Texas to have a voice in the world of whiskey and has crafted products that represent the culture of Austin. However, he doesn't just include the urban area as part of Chris's culture hails from West Texas. Having a family and living in Amarillo allowed Chris to visit the SBDC to help him with a business plan and networking with angel investors. As with most small business owners, he stays busy! Going back and forth between the Amarillo and Austin is both a challenge and a privilege and helps influence the new Texas whiskey. West Texas A&M Small Business Development Center 701 S.
