Add a small reminder of Georgia retail history to the daily drive with a Kessler's car coaster. The design looks back to a family-owned department store business that opened in Macon in 1914, moved its focus to Atlanta in the 1930s, and grew into a familiar name in several Georgia communities. Its final stores closed in 1998, but the story remains meaningful to local-history collectors. A thoughtful auto accessory for commuters, road trippers, and former shoppers.
Kessler's was a family-owned lower-end department store chain in Georgia. Its first department store opened in Macon in 1914. In 1932, the Kessler family moved to Atlanta, and Hyman and Walter H. Kessler opened a downtown Atlanta store the following year, in 1933. That store became the chain's main location. Over time, Kessler's operated seven additional Georgia locations in Smyrna, Rome, Newnan, West Point, Decatur, West Atlanta, and Canton. The company remained identified with its family ownership and its network of stores serving Atlanta and other Georgia communities. The Kessler family closed all of the stores in 1998, ending the chain's retail operations. The former downtown Atlanta store was later converted into condominiums. Kessler's history connects an early Macon opening, a move to Atlanta during the 1930s, and a long-running Georgia department store presence that concluded at the end of the twentieth century.
