In the shadow of the Los Angeles skyline, a few short blocks informally known as the Piñata District shine bright with vibrant colors, candy, and culture. The story of this neighborhood is a story of unlikely partnerships in which a business woman unexpectedly finds herself making artisanal piñatas, and a family inspires a whole new generation of immigrant merchants. This unique business ecosystem shows what happens when business owners focus on collaboration rather than competition, recognizing that a rising tide lifts all boats.

Offsite Adventures is a Masters of Scale Production presented in alliance with Capital One Business.

Special thanks to Emily Zaiden of the Craft in America Center, Lorena Robletto of Amazing Piñatas Inc, Lucy of Lucy’s Quesadillas, and the Saavedra family of Saavedra Enterprises.
