JJ and Rudy Jimenez are a brother and sister team making Mexican-American fusion candy out of their parents' home in Brenham, Texas. After seeing dulces enchilados blow up on social media last May, Rudy was eager to try the sweet, sour, and spicy treats. So JJ and Rudy went to the store and whipped up a batch of their own. From there, the company Enchilositos Treats was born.

@brimmed 3 года назад

You guys really need to show what their revenue is vs what their profit is, etc. You just saying "bringing in 105k a year" doesn't really tell us anything. I'm assuming it's gotta be $105k profit. How much goes back into the business, how much do they pay themselves, how much revenue did they make? etc

@grayonthewater 3 года назад

As a Mexican American in Texas who’s constantly surrounded by these types of candies, im genuinely surprised they have such a successful business. It’s not an original idea, they’re super common if you’re from a border state. They must be really smart to be able to utilize social media better than their competitors. (Also, I thought it’s illegal to buy food and resell it? I always thought they couldn’t do that considering the other Mexican candy brands use knock offs.)

@Emma-nw2xg 3 года назад

I think it might be illegal

@watermelonsprite1497 3 года назад

its totally legal dude. the candy is an ingridient to their product.

@ammoTP 2 года назад

Those companies probably do that because it's more profitable to use knock off candy than name brand. Surely these guys would be in trouble by now if it were illegal.

@JosePineda-jn8jk 3 года назад

I worked for a guitar company and the owner said the same thing. We shouldn’t show our process while others in the industry do show their staining and painting processes and fact of the matter is, if people like what you do and you do it consistently. Then it doesn’t matter who knows how to do it, people will come to you for reliability and convenience. Everyone can do this for sure but maybe .5% will even try to make it from home and likely even less will try to make an actual business of it..
