Bhutanese Refugees Open Grocery Store in New Hampshire (From New Hampshire Union Leader)

This article details the grand opening of a grocery store in New Hampshire run by Bhutanese refugees. Their goal was to open a store that serviced many different ethnic minorities in the area, not just the Bhutanese. The store not only sells food, but also clothes, cultural artifacts, and religious artifacts. The store has received advice from their city, Manchester, the Department of Resources and Economic Development, and the dean of the local business school. The community has rallied around the store to support it, and many customers are happy with having a local business that will provide for their varying needs. Read more about this story here.
