Merchants Visit Amid Rain Delays and Winter Trade Outlook
A rain storm keeps East Coast retailers indoors as merchants arrive at hotels for autumn visits. Despite slow street traffic, large houses see steady trade and many familiar names from New England and beyond arrive to meet buyers. Executives note refrigerators and seasonality shift demand, while Morey, Churenil & Morey prepare a pottery exhibit at 155 Friend Street for visiting merchants. Tickets for Mechanics Hall events extend to noon, with 1000+ issued and a 5 minute limit for speakers at the banquet.
