About Brodie and
Carly
Carly Pochop, co-owner of The
Market on the Plaza has run Colorful Creations in Aberdeen since
2015. She went to school for Art Education and after 2 years of
teaching quickly realized there was a gap in the community for
students needing more outside school creative outlets. She has
learned how to wear many hats and grow her business to a profitable
sustainable creative outlet for northeastern South Dakota. She has
since moved downtown two years ago and has since found a love
within the for growing downtown. After being involved within the
Aberdeen Downtown Association, Business Improvement District, The
Parking Board, and 1 Million Cups Aberdeen, she quickly realized
there was a gap in the community once more for locally made
Aberdeen inspired swag and gifts.
Brodie Mueller, co-owner of Market on the Plaza, has lived in
Aberdeen for the past 8 years and owns the downtown business Dakota
Territory Brewing Company. Dakota Territory is the first and
oldest brewery ever in Aberdeen and services the community by
creating small-batch craft beer, root beer, and cold brew
coffee. Brodie has a Masters Degree in social work and has
been involved in community building both downtown and city-wide
through different groups and projects. The brewery is involved with
various community projects and fundraisers throughout the year,
gaining a reputation as a business that supports the
community. As a fellow downtown business owner, Brodie is
committed to making downtown better by supporting new
ventures, and The Market on the Plaza is a shining example of
bringing new and innovative services to the
neighborhood.
