As the road project goes along, traveling 6th Street through town will become a little easier.

At night the new street lamps provide plenty of lighting along the sidewalks.

Things will not be like they were before, but new businesses will come and some will stay for a very long time.

We are Independent Small Business Owners , self made & self reliant.

Texans doing business the old fashioned way

Using new tools to reach more customers

We sell local because there is a need for basic things like forks, spoons, knives, rice cookers & crockpots...even electric hot plates.

People who can't get to Walmart or Target buy from us.

Sure we sell Luxury Goods & unique things Folks would like to have.

But we do stock the basic everyday things that people need.

From kitchenwares & household goods to VHS Movies.

Our customers are the reason we're here.

Support your local small business

I believe in the future of Texas City

What do you believe in?
