The business, which was started in 1949 by Merle Dowson on Queen Street, has been growing ever since and in 1975 they found that they had outgrown their facilities and decided to open a new store in the Port Perry Plaza. Since moving to the new location a further expansion of 2600 square feet has been added, giving them a total of over 9,000 square - feet of shopping area for their customers. And what do the Dowson"s attribute their success to? According to Merle, it's "'fair trading and good service", and with a record like theirs it would be hard to argue the point. i CSRS RR ae, STERLING STERLING TRUST CORPORATION NOW!
