SULLA LLC

In our recent Business Development session, Mr. E.J. Smith walked participants through core strategies to expand capacity, build stronger foundations, and compete for new opportunities.

SULLA is proud to create spaces where small business owners can gain the knowledge and confidence to take their next step forward.

Baton Rouge Metro Airport hosted an LSU Tailgate Send-Off for fans flying out to support the Tigers in their season opener against Clemson. 🐯✈️

Local vendors showcased their products, connected with travelers, and helped create a festive atmosphere that reflects the airport’s commitment to supporting small businesses and enhancing the travel experience!

As a proud consultant, SULLA is honored to support vendor inclusion at the Baton Rouge Airport and create opportunities for our community to thrive.

From a single food truck to national recognition — this Louisiana-grown, family-owned business is redefining institutional food with authenticity, impact, and bold Southern flavor.

Led by powerhouse duo Tremaine Devine and Kristen C. Smith, Tre's Street Kitchen is:
🍴The first of its kind to operate across LSU, SU, SUNO, and BRCC
🚀 A 99% YoY growth company with eyes on a 50% leap in 2025
🏆 A multi-award-winning brand featured by Amazon, Kraft Heinz, 225 Magazine, and the NFL
🌶️ Home of Louisiana Certified Tre’s Street Sauce® — with their new Cajun Alfredo hitting shelves this fall

Beyond catering and campus dining, they’re launching retail-ready products built to fly off the shelf — bringing bold, Southern flavor into kitchens across the country.

SULLA is proud to spotlight this local legacy in the making.

Questions were asked, notes were taken, and real connections were made.

From building relationships with prime contractors to navigating business loans, each session addressed real-world challenges facing small businesses.

Clear policies. Stronger teams.

Our latest Policies & Procedures session focused on one of the most essential (but often overlooked) tools in business: the employee handbook. Attendees walked through key components of HR policy creation and left with the building blocks to shape a handbook that truly supports their operations.

More hands-on trainings are on the way—stay tuned for upcoming sessions!
