History

Established in 1923.

Harland Hussey opened his grocery business in October 1923, when he remodeled an old stable. He also stocked some men’s wearing apparel. His son, Elwin, was born the same year Harland opened the business. Hussey’s Store gradually became the embodiment of the general store as associated with rural Maine. Lines of merchandise were added gradually until customers could buy anything from bubble gum to a shot gun OR a wedding gown! The bridal and formalwear department was opened in 1955 and is known for having a selection of quality formal wear at budget friendly prices.

Today the store is home to over 30,000 square feet of groceries, sporting goods, clothing, formal gowns, hardware and appliances. It truely defines the slogan «If We Ain’t Got It, You Don’t Need It».
