Ruler Foods (Kroger) already exists in a former Schnucks location. They don't seem to be all that busy and it would be foolish for them to invest in a larger space. H&M is going to move into the Sears location in Fairview. It is sad when you see empty retail space for years just get trashier over time in Granite. I really think that we have in this town what we can support. If word got out that our businesses were thriving with all the support of our community then we would have a chance to attract more. I feel like a business study would be in order for our town. Nobody comes here from out of town to eat or shop. We usually seek to get out of town for a nice meal every blue moon. Sad but true. The population of true middle class people has plummeted in this town. There's a lot to digest thinking about the future of our town. Really hard to see our town shrinking. I personally would like to see Aldi get back in town. Maybe another small Steakhouse here but the reality is that a steak-out probably wouldn't even take a chance. I would love to see some positive rumors but unfortunately I don't have one to post.
