Hope Suhr, owner of Hope’s Chest Co., a bra and lingerie boutique in Canyon Lake, has been selected to receive the Small Business Administration’s 2013 Region IX Women in Business Champion of the Year Award.
Suhr was nominated for the award by Nicole Kinney, director of the Inland Empire Women’s Business Center, in recognition of her efforts to improve opportunities for women in business.
“Hope has built a profitable business based on something she’s passionate about and finds opportunities to give back to the community, particularly women’s groups,” said Adalberto Quijada, district director.

The idea for the business came from her own brassiere fitting experience, which changed her look, comfort, and life. Following that experience, Suhr studied the culture of the brassiere and its proper fit and function in everyday life.
Hope’s Chest Co. has been featured in various local publications, Suhr has been a
guest speaker and exhibitor at a variety of events, including Loma Linda Medical Center’s Speaking of Women’s Health, Fallbrook Hospital’s Healthy Woman’s program and other women’s wellness groups.
