History of Establishment of Palmer & Sons Branches
The Palmer and Son firm expanded with three branch drug stores in Athens. In 1910 they opened on Prince Avenue, later enlarging in 1912 and 1915. A Royal Pharmacy branch opened in 1916 at Clayton Street and College Avenue with a soda fountain and full drug line. A third Broad Street branch on the site of Athens’s first hotel was built with modern facilities and seed offerings, serving farmers and the general public.
