Already good friends and now entrepreneurs, Cheryl Togmus, Tara Mielko and Vita Kairys, were looking for a business idea that would provide both flexibility and a creative outlet.
Then last January, Tara was driving through downtown Grimsby and noticed the vacant store at 5 Main St. W.
Already successful in their various fields, the Grimsby residents took the plunge and today that space, called Found, is filled from end to end with beautiful home furnishings, decor, collectables, homemade toys, jewelry, repurposed items and more, all taken on consignment.
“It is a real mix of vintage, shabby chic, contemporary and we carry the work of local artisans,” says Cheryl.
“We really believe in the downtown and want to see it thrive.”
For more information, please call 905-309-9900. It is open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Thursday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
