Anu's Store opening on 79th

A new store, called Anu's Store, is opening on 79th. There isn't an exact date yet, but they have been working on it for several months.

Their website is anusstore.com , but it looks like just a place holder for now...GoDaddy is exploiting that by having questionable links on the placeholder site.

The strange thing is, Canik's Conevnience store recently closed a couple of doors down. And Chatham Food Market is just down the street (literally). So is a conevnience store really needed? One that provides ethnic food (such as from nations in West Africa) would be unique. But are we at a point where it would be frequented by customers?

At the left is a graphic of the flyer announcing the store -- i happened to find it on the ground.

At the bottom of this entry is a photo of the building , from the Cook County Assessor Website's property search. Unfortunately, it doesn't have the front view of the storefront. But it gives you an idea where it is.

  1. I agree with you we do not need any more convenient stores. That secrion of 79th from indiana to calumet has had problems keeping any type of business open. I really think that there needs to be a meeting with the residents in the immediate area and find out what kind of stores would they like to see and willing to support because fast foods and candy stores are not working.
