Mani and Manjit Singh took over operations last Tuesday and had been introducing themselves to the store’s clientele.
“All the locals are very friendly – one of them is 10 and he comes in for lollies,” Mani said.
“It’s a nice store and a big store.”
Manni said the business, which has already been operating for 70 years, would endeavour to cut prices in the coming months to match supermarkets and renovations were planned long term.
The pair already operate King of the Pack Tobacco in the Summer Centre and a convenience store in Bathurst.
