Chamber member LilJazZi’s Cafe and owner Andrena Mullins never thought she’d have a restaurant.

She had no prior restaurant experience. The cafe happened randomly.

Mullins did have retail experience prior to starting LilJazZi’s. She worked at Target for 16 years, running logistics for 14 of those years. In 2014, Mullins started a vending machine company, winding up with 83 machines.

LilJazZi’s wasn’t planned, but it was meant to be.

The downtown Florence cafe has been going strong for three years now. Mullins plans on opening a second location that will mainly feature on-the-go items.
