[Don Hunter] We started in a
little one-room building that had a full basement, but we did all of our
plumbing in the basement, but the upstairs retail area was very small.
And we were there for a year and a half to two years, and then we moved
on to a larger store in a shopping center and spent several years there,
and proceeded in 1992 to build this facility here.
Turnkey Grand Openings.
[Don Hunter] This gentleman here
happens to be my son. He's been my right-hand man for many many
years. It was much easier to retire in '96 when he was here to
take over.
[Jon Hunter] One of the biggest
parts of our store, being out in a rural area, is what we call the
hardware section, the nuts and the bolts and the nails and all types of
fasteners. That's always been good because a lot of the farmers
are always mending machinery and things around the farm. And the
kids that were in here when I was growing up in here, now they've got
families and they come in here for the fix-it-up things.
