A Platform For Connection and Growth
Suburban Spark
At our recent Suburban Spark event, Monique Montfroy presented her eco-luxe brand, Texcoco Collective, focused on sustainable design. She valued the opportunity to connect with other entrepreneurs and made key collaborations.
Spotlight on Monique Montfroy of Texcoco Collective
At our recent Suburban Spark event, we had the pleasure of hearing Monique Montfroy, the creative force behind Texcoco Collective take the virtual stage to pitch her business. Her brand is an eco-luxe fashion accessory company dedicated to conscious design, environmental conservation, and thoughtful consumption. Texcoco Collective is on a mission to challenge and change harmful practices in the fashion industry, creating products that reduce social and environmental impacts through innovative design concepts, ethically sourced materials, and creative collaborations.
Monique shared her enthusiasm for Suburban Spark
"It was really great to meet other people and share our challenges. It was also great to have the opportunity to ask for help from each other. Oftentimes in business it is hard to ask for help, or when you do there is a big price tag attached to it, so freely and openly getting advice and assistance from each other was really lovely," she shares.
Making new connections
During the speed networking sessions, Monique made several valuable connections. Angela, a photographer, who will assist Monique in finding workshops in bag making in Melbourne, while Monique will connect Angela with her photography contacts. Luis, who runs an import/export business, will collaborate with Monique to address issues with Mexican manufacturing and supply chains. And lastly, Berry, who provided Monique with excellent suggestions on markets in Victoria to sell her products.
Monique praised MIC’s host Nadia for her energy and warm welcome, which made the event even more enjoyable.

Suburban Spark continues to be a fantastic opportunity for local entrepreneurs to connect, collaborate, and grow.
