FEATURED IMPACT NOW OPEN Agility Bank opened May 23 at 2401 N. Shepherd Drive, Ste. 140, Houston, as the rst minority depository institution in the U.S. to be primarily owned and led by women. To be considered an MDI, a bank must have 51% minority ownership and board membership. A total of 54% of Agility’s ownership is minority; 75% of its board is minority; and 85% of Agility’s shareholders are Houstonians, ocials said. The bank’s goal is to promote nancial parity for women, founder, CEO and President Lauren Sparks said.

12 The rst Texas location of Nando’s Peri-Peri , a South African fast-casual chain, has been announced for Post Oak Plaza in Uptown. The eatery will open in spring 2023 at 1751 Post Oak Blvd., Hous- ton, and will bring the chain’s menu of spicy ame-grilled chicken. The Uptown location will be the agship in Houston and will be located in a space that is being redesigned by the Michael Hsu Oce of Architecture. The venue will also include a patio with space for 80 diners. A second location is slated to open in the La Centerra development in Katy around the same time. www.nandosperiperi.com 13 The team behind Hando and Kanpai Club are slated to open Dinette —a Vietnamese-inspired kitchen and bar—in July at 1018 N.

T C Jester Blvd., Houston. Tea + Victory was a board game cafe with 600 games avail- able for guests to play as well as drink and food options. Ocials announced the plans to close in a Facebook post, citing challenges in trying to “survive the long-term eects of the pandemic and the economy.” The doors of the T C Jester Boulevard location rst opened in April 2018.

Sparks said she also wants to support small- and midsize companies in Houston. One of the services for small businesses, A2B Express, pulls documentation and information needed for a loan application, which allows for an accelerated response time. 713-324-8810. www.agility.bank
