From Fired High School Dropout to Owning D.C.’s Best Taco Chain!
Description
On this episode of Our American Stories, when immigrant Osiris Hoil lost his construction job during the economic downturn of 2008, it felt like the kind of setback that ends a dream. He had left Mexico with hope for something better, only to find himself caught in the same financial crisis that pushed so many families to the brink. What he still had was his cooking, his mother’s standards, and a neighbor who believed he could turn those gifts into something real.
With that encouragement, Hoil began what would become District Taco, a business that grew through persistence rather than luck. Osiris shares how that unlikely beginning took shape during one of the hardest moments in recent economic history.
