Enterprising Moms Network Inc

Yes, this is the Enterprising Moms Network, but we've always empasized that one of the beauties of our network is that you don't have to be a Mom to be part of us. 

 However, I don't think we have an children that are members. 

 That might have to change... 

 As Gabrielle Durning gave us a tour of the VIP Lounge at the 2009 Whistler Film Fest, she showcased each and every one of the products and told us the story about each company. They were all interesting (of course) but by far, the most interesting story was that of Nicole Hein. 

At the age of TWELVE years old, Nicole started her own company - Tu-Bees Foods Inc. Tu-Bees Foods provides consumers with a convenient and unique way to enjoy the great taste of Saskatchewan honey with the use of Tu-Bees squeezable tubes. The soft laminate tubes are compact and portable, providing a clean and easy product to take with them while on the go.

The story is that two years ago, Nicole wanted a horse. And her mom said that somehow, she would need to raise some funds and show responsibility for having a horse. 

 So Nicole went out and started her own company. And two years later, she's very, very successful with it! Since Tu-Bees began, Nicole and Tu-Bees have been featured on CTV News, CBC News and Radio, Local TV stations, as well as in newspapers and magazines. Because of this, Tu-Bees has gone from being sold locally to being available in stores throughout Saskatchewan. Tu-Bees is slowly expanding into neighboring provinces and presently has two distributors that provide worldwide shipping to both consumers and retailers. 

Incredibly inspiring story. Enterprising Kids, it could be the next big thing....
