Small businesses such as this are usually run by one person. We are lucky to have community members volunteer at times. We've worked hard for 14 years to keep providing this store to the community. It is the sole source of income for my family. I have spent much time compiling the Guidelines, so this store runs as efficiently as possible. Please consider this before consigning. |
