Palmeras Cuban Store is a grocery store located in Columbus, Nebraska, that specializes in Hispanic produce, pastries, snacks, meats, seafood, and other goods. Owned by Ana Villegas and Jesus Ramos, the store was opened in July 2018 to meet the needs of the growing Cuban population in the community and provide a taste of home for newcomers. With the help of the Center for Rural Affairs, Ana and Jesus received a start-up loan and business counseling, allowing them to quickly penetrate the market and expand their business. They have since moved to a larger location and continue to bring new products to Columbus each month.
With a focus on excellent customer service and a wide range of products, Palmeras Cuban Store has become a popular destination for the local community. Ana's background as an immigration paralegal also allows her to assist clients with their immigration documents while running the store. The Center for Rural Affairs has been a valuable resource for Ana and Jesus, providing support and guidance for their business and helping them navigate challenges. As they continue to grow, the couple looks forward to buying their own building and expanding even further.
