Insider: Southern Aztec Co.
Lauren Kay’s Journal made a new friend, Southern Aztec Co.!
Something on my heart this year has been being more inclusive with the Aggie network! This includes Aggie businesses in any shape, size or form! Prior to all the new changes we’ve experienced, I reached out to a sweet incoming TAMU freshman and asked if I could write about her small business, Southern Aztec Co.! This post has perfect timing for supporting small businesses through the struggle they are currently facing due to COVID-19.
About
Southern Aztec Co., formerly known as Southern Scents N’ Sips, currently has a growing number of products but started with car fresheners whom she sweetly coined as “freshies”.
“Southern Scents N’ Sips [Southern Aztec Co.] is an online-based company that creates products so you can express who you are.”

Humble Beginnings…
I asked Ms. Cassidi DeArmond for a brief summary of how her little business got started… and it could not get any sweeter.
“It all started in my momma’s kitchen. Growing up, my mom has always owned a boutique and when we moved to Three Rivers, Texas she was too far from the lady who made her scents. So she convinced me to do it. I started off with leftover beads, molds, and scents from someone else, but after getting started we invested more into my new business and have expanded to working with schools for fundraisers and wholesaling to other businesses.”

What is Southern Aztec Co. doing today?
“Currently [Southern Aztec Co.] is online-based and travels to a few shows such as Goliad Market Days, livestock shows, and supplies businesses. We are continuing to grow over social media platforms including Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook as our business continues to expand. “
