Mrs. Georgette Running Eagle is the proud owner of Shakota Pow-Wow Supply inc. and has been in business since February 19, 2019. She began her shop as an online small business and vendor selling at Pow-Wows and merged into a small shop that was right next to her residence on the Shoshone-Bannock reservation but just recently she has moved into her own brick and mortar shop located in Chubbuck, Idaho. Georgette's business began by selling traditional jingles, ribbon, and hairpipe bone but her inventory has expanded into a variety of other merchandise such as star quilts, beads, fringes, scarves, candles and many more things with still a focus on traditional staples and Native American entrepreneurs. Her shop promotes local artists such as Brodie Sanchez and Kira Murillo and she makes her mission to support local Native entrepreneurs.
