    “I lived in New Orleans for a couple of years pre-COVID and worked on Decatur, so Small Mart was always part of my routine before work. I’ve always loved this place, so when I recently moved back and walked by the old location only to realize they were no longer there, I was genuinely sad. A quick Google search later, I discovered they had opened a brick-and-mortar location, and I couldn’t have been happier! I stopped by the very next morning, and the new space is absolutely lovely. I’m so happy to see them grow and have a place of their own, but what really made my visit special was the incredibly sweet person behind the counter who genuinely made my day. It’s always wonderful to see a local business you love thriving, and I’m so happy I still get to enjoy Small Mart. Wishing them all the continued success!”
