CELEBRATING BLACK BUSINESSES: Arielle Collins of Village Pharmacy

Arielle Collins provides boutique-style pharmaceutical work across Loreauville with Village Pharmacy.

Collins takes after her mother, Savitra Antoine-Collins, who has worked as a pharmacist for over 40 years and opened her own independent pharmacy in Jeanerette 20 years ago. Their drive to serve the community came from Collins’ grandmother, Mae Willa Antoine, who worked as a healer around Loreauville. People from around the community requested her aid when looking for an old-fashioned or all-natural solution to their ailments. Collins, her mother and her aunt, Lora Antoine, all graduated from Xavier University as pharmacists.
