Since opening our first Friendze Store
in 1990 in Abilene, Texas, our goal
has been building relationships, making
friends, encouraging and inspiring
you our customers and partners to
make this world a better and more
beautiful place. Both Homer and I
want our mission in life to be helping
and encouraging people and through
the Friendze Stores we feel we have
had many opportunities to help inspire
and encourage you our friends.
Friendze
began helping people make extra money.
In the beginning our customers would
make accessories and take them to
craft shows all over the country to
put a child through school, build
a backyard fence or some need they
had. We believe with creativity and
a little effort almost any financial
condition can be changed for the better.
Teachers have shared with us time
and time again how the love to make
and sell jewelry as a part time second
income.
Friendze
operates in one of the most volatile
markets around: Fashion. NO fashion
stays around for long, one day is
long necklaces the next it's short.
Wide ties for men, narrow ties later.
Although
we are down the "food" chain
from the big fashion designers we
attempt to help our customers create
personalized and unique items, giving
them full expression of their individual
taste and style.
Friendze
stores grew to nine stores at one
time and at present we have a total
of 5 stores. The stores are a showcase
of creative talents of our managers
and staff. Designing and interrupting
new and unique fashion for the customers
they serve.
The
Friendze Stores have grown to five
locations across Texas, with stores
in Abilene, San Antonio, San Angelo,
Lubbock and Wichita Falls. Through
the years our business has changed
some but we still offer the Newest
Trends in the Fashion Accessory Craft
Business, especially suited to the
tastes Texans. In addition to the
five stores we have a large Online

the world (www.hhhenterprises.com).
