«Hey where can I get a Guam cap for my son?» «Go to Crowns in Tumon — across the street from the San Vitores Church, they have some pretty cool stuff there.» And THAT is how the coconut grapevine works! No need elaborate marketing pitches nor tag lines or phrases to sell these products. Crowns sells their products via word of mouth and by social media outlets like Instagram(check it out — they have over 20K followers)! Crowns is a Guam«local» owned and operated company by Co-founder Marvin Manibusan(also the creative director). **Here on Guam people don’t really use Google maps for anything — they use landmarks for directions. I came in looking for a «flower» cap that my son saw on a family member months ago — I knew that she bought it on Guam but I didn’t know the brand nor where to get it. I asked for the«flower cap» and VIOLA… halo lights(literally) on the displayed floral hats. Excellent guality and beautifully made. The young men at behind the desk didn’t mind that this old lady was looking for a brand well beneath her years LOL! it’s kinda like your grandma or LOLA asking to see the latest in G-strings and pasties! yea… they seemed amused by my questions and were more than happy to suggest what my young son would like. The hat went for $ 40.00 — a price I don’t mind paying for something that is Guam made and inspired. He’ll be reppin’ the 671 well in the 210 and Germany!
