At 8 Years Old, Local Entrepreneur Starts Her Own Business

Victoria Cotton opens this year "Victoria's Sweet Sensations" - a mobile ice cream and sweets shop

By Tracy Bush, publisher of Macaroni KID Chattanooga TN February 16, 2023

At the young as of 7, Victoria was already thinking like an entrepreneur.  She started asking her parents about owning her own company.  Her mother Tracy Marshall and father Jay Cotton, a former NFL player and business owner, stated that Victoria has always found interest in his businesses and every once in a while she would go and help out.   Her father asked her one day "Would you like to start your own business?" and Victoria replied "Yes"

"What Kind?"  Victoria smiled and said to her father "A snow cone and icee business"

"Why that business?" Victoria said "I love them"

Victoria first named her business "Victoria's Lovely Icey", but later her parents had to help her change the name to "Victoria's Sweet Sensations" because she was adding more items to the menu.  

What is on the menu:  Ice Cream, Icees, Potato Chips, Candy, and other sweet sensations.
