Runner-Up Prize Winner: His Bead Store

If there’s one thing you could say about Dakota McLeod, it’s that he doesn’t waste time. He took up beading at 14 years old, was making beading kits by 16 and, two years later, opened His Bead Store online to solid success.

This led to the launch of a brick-and-mortar store in Saskatoon, and today he is busy with a new outlet in Regina — and plenty of plans for the future, too. Still, it came as a surprise to the young Métis entrepreneur, now 21, when he was recognized in SaskTel’s Small Business Spotlight promotion.
