In the slumping economy, with retail sales at the major national retailers in a free fall, many people are looking to Main Street to see how things are shaping up. One downtown retailer reports that their business is looking like the best of times.
The Flower Basket and Sweet Shoppe, at 108 West Main Street in downtown McMinnville, reported that their December sales surpassed all expectations, more than any other month since purchasing the business two years ago. The Witt family has steadily found a loyal following with their unique flower arrangements,
fresh gourmet chocolates and their increasingly wide array of candy, and their exceptional selection of gourmet foods that one would normally have to travel to Nashville to find.
It is a true "Mom and Pop" business with the additions of the children as well. Everyone is involved and everyone contributes to its success. Take the opportunity at the January 2nd First Friday New Year Sale from 5pm- 8pm to see what makes her store so unique.
