"In Howard County, Coahoma, Texas, thrives alongside Interstate 20 with a store building dating back to the 1970s, once a bustling hub for produce and snacks. After decades of decline, Mayor Warren Wallace sought investors to revive the community store, culminating in Raju Sirimalla's initiative in 2020. Originally from India, Sirimalla transitioned from IT to retail, opening stores in Midland and Euless. With the last local grocery closing in 2010, Sirimalla saw an opportunity to serve Coahoma. The reopening, filled with nostalgia for residents, aims to provide essential options locally, bridging the gap to nearby Big Spring."
