Verdin knows what it takes to run a business

San Luis Obispo Tribune | May 16, 2026

As a small business owner, I know how important it is to have local leaders who understand the challenges of running a business in San Luis Obispo County. That’s why I’m supporting Adam Verdin for county supervisor.

Adam doesn’t just talk about supporting small businesses, he lives it every day. As a co-owner of Old Juan’s Cantina alongside his sister, Eva, he understands the rising costs, regulations, staffing challenges and day-to-day realities local business owners face. He knows what it takes to keep a family business running and to create jobs in our community.

I’ve also seen Adam’s commitment to South County firsthand. He shows up, listens to people and genuinely cares about making our communities stronger. Whether it’s supporting local restaurants, improving infrastructure or creating opportunities for the next generation, Adam approaches issues with practical, common-sense leadership.

We need someone at the county level who understands both business and community. Adam Verdin is that person, and I’m proud to support him for supervisor.
