Shopping in the 1930’s with Heimie’s Haberdashery

March 19, 2018

By Josef Lorenzo | Rewire

As online shopping takes down departments stores one by one, a special store stands strong in the heart of downtown St. Paul, Minnesota. Heimie’s Haberdashery offers its customers a shopping experience out of the past century but with goods and services that are just as relevant today.

Anthony Andler, the proprietor of Heimie’s, makes a strong case for why experiential stores are still important in a society that buys everything online.
