Churromania
History
Ariel Acosta-Rubio and Maria Alejandra Bravo opened their first churro stand in Puerto La Cruz, a beach town four hours away from the capital of Venezuela. After experiencing mild success in the endeavor they set themselves a goal to "take Churromania to each corner of Venezuela and the World." They spent the next nine months devising the perfection for the dough ingredients and, by the time the recipe was complete, they were able to open a new store.
With the second store open popularity grew across the country and Churromania was able to open 15 more stores in less than a year and a half. Now based in Miami, Florida, Churromania opened up approximately 120 more stores and started marketing themselves nationally with the inclusion of American-based franchises having the Hispanic market as their main target. The organization began US operations in 2001 in Miami.
