Portland’s Bar Carlo Featured in Culture Capital Docuseries

Culture Capital, a three-part docuseries now airing on Xfinity and Peacock, showcases nine game-changing and diverse entrepreneurs who are laying the foundation for future founders and features conversations with an array of business owners and founders at all stages of the journey.

Featured in Culture Capital is Melinda Archuleta, founder of Bar Carlo, a full-service, neighborhood Mexican American restaurant in Portland, Oregon. Growing up in Southern California as a Mexican American, Melinda frequented Mexico with her family to connect to her heritage.

Those experiences inspired her to explore the flavors of her culture. After working in various San Diego restaurants, Melinda had the opportunity to create Bar Carlo and quickly infused it with vibrant and authentic flavors that reflect her roots.

Bar Carlo also is among 100 small businesses in Multnomah County that received comprehensive grant packages last year from Comcast RISE, a program that aims to help businesses and their communities thrive through economic growth. Grant packages included business consultation services, educational resources, a $5,000 monetary grant, creative production, media schedule and a technology makeover.
