This week, we were excited to have a chance to catch up with Amanda Blair and Michelle Duduks, owners of Gulf Shore Charcuterie. Here’s what they had to say…

Can you tell us a little bit about why you love what you do? What is it about your business that makes you so passionate?

We have always enjoyed charcuterie and entertaining. We are moms and wanted to be able to do something that we enjoy and still be able to be available for our children. We love seeing our customers’ faces when they see their boxes or board displays.

What’s your favorite thing about owning a business in Bradenton?

We are locals to Bradenton and it is very fulfilling to be able to offer a service to our friends, family, and other businesses and to be able to donate to our children’s schools and other local organizations.

What do you want people to know about your business?

Our grazing boxes are available for birthday gifts, anniversaries, thank you gifts, for vacation property owners to offer as a welcome gift, and wedding day snacks. Our boards are available for all types of events. We deliver!!

What’s your favorite way to #SupportLocal?

We are affiliated with other local businesses and refer their services to our guests by offering packages of our services and their services. We list those local women-owned businesses on our website too. We donate raffles to local schools not just for our kids’ school, Pace center for girls, and Girl Scouts.

Gulf Shore Charcuterie offers charcuterie grazing boxes for 1-12 guests and charcuterie grazing boards for 15-75 guests. To learn more, visit their website or follow them on Facebook!
