Our Friends, Family, and Community Through a Hispanic Powdered Drink
Stefanie Garcia Turner has worked in the natural products industry for years. She has seen and helped hundreds of brands grow, but as she walked through her local tienda one day, a realization occurred to her. The same brands she saw as a kid were still there, but there were hardly any new products to speak of in these Latin American markets. This inspired her to combine her passion for natural food and her Hispanic heritage to create TUYYO, a modern line of Hispanic foods and beverages made with real ingredients.
TUYYO is part of the Whole Foods Market 2025 LEAP Early Growth Cohort. Click here to learn more about LEAP.
A Love Letter to Ruby Jean
“Hispanics are the biggest minority in the United States, and we will continue to grow. And I think that power is really wonderful to see. And incorporating our culture into the mainstream is something that I’m just so proud of.
And for us and other cultures, being able to do what we can to incorporate their culture, is also something that just adds to the vibrancy that we have in the United States. Just the flavors of the world is what people really want, whether they know it or not..”
Stefanie Garcia Turner, CEO and Founder, TUYYO Foods
