I wanted to take a moment to publicly thank local entrepreneurs Karen and Doug MacPherson for a terrific run at Grant King Men’s Wear.
While it is sad to see any long-standing business close, they and their staff leave with a reputation for providing unparalleled customer service.
Whether it be helping our local grads fit their first tuxedo or keeping many of us up with current styles and trends, Grant King never failed to deliver.
I will never forget my first day in parliament wearing a suit from Grant King. Many may not have known that Doug and Karen prided themselves in providing many Canadian-made suits.
Doug, Karen and their kind staff members Kim Cohoe and Jennifer Davey knew their customers’ needs and worked hard to make your experience one that was valued as a loyal customer.
I would like to formally wish them all well as they move on to other activities, both personal and professional.
While I am saddened by the closure, I would also note this gives a chance for other entrepreneurs to step up and create a new small business legacy to help serve the community.
