Today we’d like to introduce you to George Loyola.
Hi George, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
Catrina Cantina Bar is more than a family-owned business – it’s a dream come true. It was born from the simple yet powerful vision of creating the ideal destination for fun and unforgettable moments with friends. Catrina is located in the heart of Main Street in Wauchula, FL.
Our story began in January 2025 and from day one, our goal was clear: that Mexican joy would be felt in every corner. We achieve this through an authentic and vibrant decoration, which transports you directly to Mexico. But the experience doesn’t end there.
Our clients have fun every weekend, with DJs or live music. We also have karaoke nights. What is important for the entire Catrina team is that customers have an amazing experience.
We are very happy with everything we have achieved so far. We have very good reviews from our customers for the decoration, the snacks, the drinks, the atmosphere experienced every night, and the best part is that we receive new customers through recommendations.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The journey has not been easy, as in all businesses. The main obstacle encountered was attracting customers, so that they see Catrina Cantina Bar as a nice, modern, attractive place with an excellent atmosphere, and that the residents of Wauchula do not have to drive to slightly distant cities like Tampa, Bartow, Lakeland, or Miami to have fun in a good environment.
Catrina Cantina Bar welcomes customers who want to celebrate their birthdays, graduations, and any reason is good for celebrating; so. every visit is a celebration, a space where the community comes together to create unforgettable memories to the rhythm of Mexico Fiesta.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?

Where we are in life is often partly because of others. Who/what else deserves credit for how your story turned out?
Catrina Cantina Bar is a family business, and I have been managing it, but I must emphasize that I could not have achieved this without the constant guidance and support of my mother Giovanna Loyola (CEO of HOLO Group) and a team of professionals who support us daily to make this business work, ensuring continuity and seeking the necessary tools to move forward, despite the economic situation we are currently experiencing.
My mother is a fundamental part of our businesses; she is visionary, a natural salesperson, committed, and passionate about achieving the goals we set as a company. She advises us to be innovative, seek new clients, present shows that are attractive and previously unseen in Wauchula, ensure marketing campaigns are planned in advance, and that advertising conveys the right message so we can attract customers.
