Greater Grays Harbor, Inc. is pleased to announce the awardee of the 2021 Q1 Business of the Quarter: Martin Bruni Liquor!
Martin Bruni Liquor, in operation since 2011, is locally owned and operated by Kim and Jon Martin. Being the largest liquor store on the Washington Coast, this business offers spirits, the largest beer cooler in the North Beach area and a wide selection of wine, and lottery.
Operating a successful business takes a great deal of time and dedication. “If a new business or organization were looking to succeed in Grays Harbor, we would recommend to understand the seasonality,” says Kim Martin, co-owner of Martin Bruni Liquor. “Be prepared for the slow seasons by creating a business plan and have more money than you may think saved as a back-up.”
In the last year alone, Martin Bruni Liquor has supported various non-profits, including: PAWS of Grays Harbor, Ronald McDonald House, food and clothing banks, Habitat for Humanity, Garden By The Sea and many others. They’ve also supported service organizations such as Rotary, Elks and Eagles Clubs as well as the Ocean Shores Beautification Committee.
When asked why they enjoy doing business in Grays Harbor, Kim mentions how much they enjoy the atmosphere of the area. “We really love doing business in such a beautiful area that has such great people,” explains Kim. “We’re all in this together.”
Martin Bruni Liquor was awarded with the honor during a small gathering on Monday, April 12th. They’re located at 172 W Chance A La Mer NE #C in Ocean Shores and can be reached at 360-289-3178.
