Appalachian Mercantile held its ribbon cutting April 3. Many town officials as well as Wise County/Norton Chamber of Commerce representatives were there for the event. The business opened in early March and has been doing quite well. In a deal with the town of Appalachia, owners Tommy and Shelby Adkins were given the building on Main Street in exchange for completing the repairs and opening a business. Appalachian Mercantile offers a coffee shop with pastries as well as clothing including Appalachia Bulldog and Powell Valley Viking shirts and hoodies. TERRAN YOUNG PHOTO
