A company founded in Newcastle in 1878 is now operating in Saint John.
Lounsbury recently opened a store in the City on Rothesay Avenue.
Jill Sadler of Lounsbury's tells CHSJ News they are often asked about further expansion plans beyond the cities like Moncton and Sussex where they operate now.
She says growth is goal so they are going to get Saint John under their belt and see what happens from there.
The company also owns several auto dealerships and heavy truck companies and it dates back to selling farm equipment and clothing.
