I don't agree that the article is not notable. It is about a regional retail chain with 31 locations. There are plenty of articles in Wiki about regional retail chains that have not been proposed for deletion.Dwight Burdette (talk) 18:21, 23 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

If you actually bothered to read the article, you would know that the chain is not limited to Michigan, but also has Indiana locations. Having said that, even if the chain was limited to one state, that would not detract from its notability. I can without much effort at all find numerous Wikipedia articles about businesses with much less of a geographical footprint. Regardless of the nature of its business, a retail operation which has multiple outlets is, ipso facto, notable. If the article merits more content, then that is an argument to request more content from contributors, not an argument for deleting the article.

I found additional sources about this chain. Since at least two of them have significant coverage the old AFD is null and I have restored the article with expanded content. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:34, 8 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
