 About Me
Welcome to My Cuban Store, and thank you for taking a moment to get to know me.
My name is Alexis Martin. I'm a first generation American citizen, born in Cuba. Growing up with family in Cuba gave me not only traditions, but showed me the rich heritage Cuba has to offer. America gave me opportunities, and new traditions.
I started My Cuban Store, from a small room in my house in the year 2002. Back then I was a computer consultant with a small practice in South Florida. Although I loved my profession my entrepreneurial spirit was very strong. I was always trying to create and operate a retail internet business.
Opportunity comes when you look for it.
I started by selling Cuban memorabilia and pre-Castro coins. One day my wife and I were invited to a beautiful
guayabera wedding by the sea in Miami. We thought the guayaberas might be a good addition to our business. Almost immediately those guayaberas became the most popular item we carried.
We carefully hand selected reputable manufacturers who best represented this traditional shirt. They became our first supplier, and we still buy from them today. But after learning the ins and outs of clothing manufacture, we started relations with factories in Latin America and Asia. Today we are proud of our own "Caribbean Classic Wear" brand of guayabera.
A Family affair
MyCubanStore.com is a family business. My wife, my father in-law and occasionally the kids help me to go the extra mile for our customers. We've taught our kids our simple success formula: hard work, honesty and dedication. We hope they will carry this teaching throughout their life.
Not only do we get to share our heritage and some of our traditions, but we also get the satisfaction of knowing our customers are completely satisfied. It is especially gratifying to be able to demonstrate for our kids that everything is possible when you're willing to work for it in this great nation.
We Like To Hear From You
If you have questions during the ordering process, most of the time you'll get an e-mail directly from me.
Make yourself comfortable, and take a few minutes to look around my store. Check out the selection of limited-edition
guayaberas, and choose one for yourself, or as a gift for someone else.
As always, I enjoy hearing from you. If you have any questions, concerns, or comments, please email me directly at alexis@mycubanstore.com
