We’re proud to highlight our client, Abi Chen, founder of Harvest Moon Noodles. 🍜

After moving to Austin three years ago, Abi noticed something missing, affordable Asian comfort food that felt like home. Inspired by her family's background in the restaurant industry and the flavors she grew up with, she set out to create Harvest Moon Noodles, a pan-Asian stir-fry noodle concept inspired by the energy, comfort, and community of Asian night markets.

Abi recently brought her Pad Thai to our office, and our team loved getting a taste of the delicious flavors behind her business!

Stay tuned for her August pop-up! You won’t want to miss it.

A strong community starts with a strong team. 💙

At our Spring Graduation, each EGBI team member took a moment to introduce themselves and share how they help support the business owners in our community.

Whether through coaching, programs, outreach, or behind-the-scenes support, our team works together to create opportunities that help businesses move forward.

We are grateful for every team member who helps make our mission possible. Thank you for all you do!

👏 Help us celebrate the EGBI team! 💙 Show our EGBI team some love in the comments!
