History
Established in 1974.
The cultural one-stop shop, that came to be known by many as «Nicholas“started out of the trunk of a car. Nicholas, the founder of the variety store, started by selling to stores around the city in 1974 and eventually getting a booth at a flea market in Queens. While keeping in mind his vision, Nicholas opened a store in the early eighties in Union Square bearing his family name. With hard work and determination, he moved his business to Harlem in June 2004 offering a wider range of products. You can find conscious fashion, bath and body products, aromatherapy items, a large selection of greeting cards, books and artifacts to name a few. Nicholas doesn’t just service his community, he also sells items wholesale and his shipping department reaches clients around the globe. We are able to share our wonderful products with customers worldwide! As a company we stress quality over quantity. We would like to thank all of our customers for your loyalty and support over the years.
Meet the Business Owner
Monique N.
Business Owner
Anyone who’s ever met Monique knows that she’s truly a genuine person. Never on that fake humble and always gracious whenever new customers make her store a destination while visiting the city. Local regulars treat her like a family member because she makes time for their conversations and isn’t afraid to share a laugh or two in between. On any given day you can find her behind the cash register ringing up a t-shirt or reorganizing a jewelry display case. Her vibe is so low-key you almost forget that she’s the one in charge. Along with that laid back approach is a business acumen that’s proven successful in her everyday running of Nicholas. When she’s not fielding phone calls, she’s planning the store’s next event.
