Germany is a country enjoying abundant
natural beauty, and an elegance marked by a unique culture and history. (die chönheit)
The many German regions enjoy variations of this spectacular natural
splendor while owning certain characteristics that sets each apart from the
rest. Perhaps the most unique of all the
German regions is the one found in Minnesota.
It’s founder, Erika Neibert, is the business mind behind German
Specialty Imports. Her company has found
a way to become a Little Germany.
Given that 43% of the Minnesota
population is German and also the largest ethnic group in the U.S., Erika has
become the bridge for the many among us wanting that authentic connection to
Germany. And that authentic connection
couldn’t be more relevant now that Octoberfest is nearly upon us.
She came to the U.S. in 1998. A husband and three children as well as a
career as a computer programmer occupied most of her time. But it was her passion for all things German
that ultimately led to activities like consulting businesses who wanted to
import German products as well as creating curriculums for helping people speak
and write German to pre-defined levels of expertise.
Today, her shop in Prior Lake boasts an
incredible selection of premium German accessories. She hand selects it all. There’s a beautiful selection of stylish hats
from Lodenhut and Faustmann as well as shoes, dresses and even leather
pants.
Her China/Porcelain is remarkable for
the brands she carries. There’s Meissen,
KPM, Rosenthal, Hutschenreuther, Arzberg
and Seltmann.
Need German groceries. Well take
in the coffee choices from such brands as Dallmayer, Jakobs, Tchibo,
Idee and Caro Kaffee.
Best known for its famous Oktoberfest,
Germany is also home to some of Europa’s most beautiful scenery, fairytale
castles, important historic sites and lively party scenes. The only way, short of going there, that one
can begin to have this experience is visiting Erika in her Little German here
in Prior Lake. Call her at 952-226-2563
or better yet stop in to one of her famous weekend open houses.
She’s located at 19580 Bernard
Avenue. It’s a quaint store about all
things fun in life: Cosmetics, beauty, skincare, hair, nails, food and all done
with a distinct German flair. Be ready
because when you arrive you’ll be greeted with that infamous German hospitality
known around the world.
