Houston, TX --  In his biennial State of the State address on Tuesday, Texas Governor Greg Abbott touted the state's strong economy and workforce, highlighting the success story of J.I.V.E. Juice founder Tamala Austin. J.I.V.E, which stands for Juicing Is Very Essential, is the first juice company owned by an African American to be placed in Whole Foods, and Austin received a standing ovation by state leaders in honor of her accomplishments.

"Inspiration, hard work and drive pay off in Texas; they paid off for Tamala," Gov. Abbott stated, citing the growth of J.I.V.E. Juice from a home-based business into a retail success. "Let us thank you for your inspiration of what a business leader can be."
