Retail and experience-based businesses added to downtown Bluffton
By Marlena Ballinger
Becky Avila is the owner of a newly renovated building located at 105 E. Elm Street which houses three new businesses: Avila’s boutique Fusion Designs on Elm and Rage in the Alley and tenant Bluffton Art Company.
Avila, along with her partner Lee Bowman, has fulfilled her lifelong dream of opening and operating a boutique. What started as playing “store” as a kid and led to pop-up shops held in the club house of Bluffton Golf Club, has now turned into a thriving downtown business.
Avila’s business has more ties to local entrepreneurs than one may imagine. When you meet her, you’ll recognize her as the receptionist at Spectrum Salon, owned by Mandy Kinn of Bluffton.
