What is Pana MIA Club actually?

Connecting the SoFlo Community to its own vibrant & innovative creators/entrepreneurs
Mission Statement
We are organizing the South Florida diversified working class to build regenerative and vibrant economies. By connecting locals with quality resources and educating on the benefits of reinvesting locally, we cultivate financial security, personal engagement, and emphasize the power of a unified community.
¿¿Que Tal Pana??
Being a small business owner may be really overwhelming and isolating at times, but you aren't alone.
Miami is filled with small vendors, all with different strengths and skillsets. We started Pana Mia as a way to bring everyone together, to pool our resources, insights and strategies. As consumers start recognizing the benefits of shopping local, we want to create a centralized space where they can explore and fall in love with local brands.
Community Events!
Pana MIA curates intentional events centered around meaningful connection and the celebration of local culture and art.
