Marcus Moore is 29 years old, lives in Maryland, and has autism. He has been determined to not let that stop him from becoming a successful business owner.
After working at gorcery stores for years he decided it was time to start his own business. He approached his dad explaining this was a way for him to make enough money to be self sufficient one day. His parents agreed and have been helping him start a pretzel business since last fall. He named it
“Moore Crunch” (great name!) and already has a bunch of stores carrying the product in his area.
He’s also selling them online at MooreCrunch.com. Best of luck to Marcus and his new venture.
