(Laredo, Texas)-Have you ever thought about running your own food truck and sharing your family’s secret fajita taco? How about launching a pop-up store for your special crafts, or offering a mobile retail store?

TAMIU-SBDC director Michael Gonzalez said the panel discussion is a response to community interest and business growth in mobile approaches.
