On February 4th, 2026, Mrs Momma Bear was honored as one of the San Antonio Business Journal’s 2026 Business of the Year Honorees, recognizing locally owned companies that demonstrated growth and resilience during a year marked by economic uncertainty.
The celebration took place in San Antonio, where leaders from across the city gathered to acknowledge businesses shaping the region’s future. Founder and Designer Lee Evans Lee accepted the award on behalf of Mrs Momma Bear, delivering a thoughtful and heartfelt speech centered on opportunity, community, and building something lasting for the next generation.
In her remarks, Lee spoke to what makes San Antonio truly special; the spirit of the people. That belief has guided the brand from its earliest days, reinforcing the idea that growth is rooted in community, support, and shared ambition.
Mrs Momma Bear’s journey began during the uncertainty of COVID, when the brand first took shape on Lee’s family ranch in West Texas. What started as a dream quickly became a commitment—one fueled by nonstop effort, resilience, and a belief in the American Dream. As Lee shared throughout the evening, if you can imagine it and are willing to work relentlessly toward it, progress is possible.
The moment also served as a reflection on gratitude and momentum. Lee acknowledged the influence of her parents and grandparents, whose values shaped her drive from a young age, as well as the Mrs Momma Bear team, whose dedication and shared mindset continue to push the brand forward every day.
Being named a Business of the Year Honoree by the San Antonio Business Journal is both an honor and a marker of what’s ahead. With strong roots in San Antonio and an eye toward the future, Mrs Momma Bear looks forward to continued growth, innovation, and expanding opportunity—while staying grounded in the values that started it all.
We extend our sincere thanks to the San Antonio Business Journal for this recognition and for celebrating the resilience of local businesses.
