Shreveport kidpreneurs expand, showcase business skills

She thought the best way to learn about business and finances was hands-on, so she encouraged them to start a business they could manage.

10-year-old Caden and 13-year-old Camryn were up for the challenge and together they tossed around ideas, but they landed on a vending machine business. It’s called Paramount Stewart Enterprises.
