Visitors to Tupps Brewery can now shop from six small businesses located at the East McKinney property.

The Silos at Tupps Brewery debuted during a March 7 grand opening event. The shops, which are housed in converted grain bins, are all small businesses that are part of the brewery’s Build-Your-Own-Business program.

Diving in deeper: The program began from an idea Tupps Brewery founder Keith Lewis had to support small businesses amid rising costs for establishing a brick-and-mortar location, said Katie Baker, who manages marketing and events for the brewery. The former grain silos were shipped to the McKinney brewery and installed to serve as storefront spaces for small businesses, she said.

Business hours vary for the shops located in The Silos at Tupps Brewery, which includes:

• Fields of Fidelis
• Hotel Ugly Metal Jewelry
• Rolling Cigars
• Peridot Plant Co.
• Stockyard Pantry
• Toasted Simple
