Forchheimer's Expands Store Departments After Redesign
Forchheimer's has enlarged several departments by removing a partition and re arranging merchandise. The shoe, women's wear and children's departments were increased by at least one third. Women's wear is now concentrated on the west side and men's on the east. A durable fence with treated posts and wire is recommended as a long lasting investment.
