Cinco de Mayo is a fun holiday created to celebrate the Mexican Army’s victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. This is not Mexican Independence Day, but it can be a fun time for everyone. You can celebrate Mexican culture and add a sale or two to increase revenue during this time of the year. Plus, you can create custom bags and accessories that speak to the holiday.
