The Women’s Network Exchange of Arizona or WNEA will host a familiar favorite event, the Small Business Shopping Expo (the orignal shopping extravagana) on Saturday, Nov. 7, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Aquatic Center inside the Relics & Rods Hall.

This event has become one of the WNEA’s most beloved annual traditions. It brings local small businesses and a variety of vendors together for the community to shop and support.

“This shopping event is the Women’s Network Exchange’s biggest signature fundraiser for us and was started by members way before I came. I am happy to see a traditional event continue this year with the help of our events coordinator and WNEA member Kristen Kruegel,” said Janet Cruz, interim president of WNEA.

At the expo, in addition to vendors, there will be food and a cash bar. There will be raffles as well and admission is free, making the WNEA’s shopping extravaganza an ideal day out for residents. For more information, you may email Cruz at wnealhcaz@gmail.com.

Sponsors include, A+ Mail & Business Center, and Anderson Auto Group.

For vendors, contact WNEA member Kristen Kruegel at 928-208-5311.
