Jim McIngvale

Jim McIngvale – Philanthropist & Owner of Gallery Furniture Location: Lopez Mexican Restaurant in Houston, TX When Jim started his mattress business in Houston, Texas he had just $5,000 and a pickup truck.  Now, he has amassed a furniture empire through his “wacky ads” and gregarious personality.  It was, however, a single act of kindness that thrust him into the international spotlight.  During Hurricane Harvey, he opened the doors of all of his stores to displaced residents, earning him local adoration and international cheers. We go with Jim to his favorite Mexican restaurant, Lopez Family restaurant, to eat fajitas and hear the story of how any local businessman can make a tremendous social impact. Follow To Dine For:Official Website: ToDineForTV.comFacebook: Facebook.com/ToDineForTVInstagram: @ToDineForTVTwitter: @KateSullivanTVEmail: [email protected] Thank You to our Sponsors!American National InsuranceSpiritless - Use promo code TODINEFOR for free shipping Follow Our Guest:Facebook: Facebook.com/MattressMackInstagram: @JimMcIngvaleTwitter: @MattressMack Follow The Restaurant:Official Website: VivaLopez.comFacebook: Facebook.com/LopezMexicanRestaurantInstagram: @LopezMexicanRestaurantTwitter: @LopezMexRest  Hosted on Acast.
