Keep business cards together with a small tribute to King's Variety Store, the regional discount retailer founded by M.H. King in Burley, Idaho, in 1915. At its height, the chain had 27 stores in six western states, including communities where a variety store offered more than groceries and brought a wide range of useful goods within reach. King's announced its closure in February 2017 and ceased operations that May. This card holder suits collectors and anyone drawn to the history of local commerce.
King's Variety Store was a discount-store chain founded in 1915 by M.H. King in Burley, Idaho. The business grew to a peak of 27 stores across Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Wyoming. Its locations were often in smaller towns where a grocery store was the major retail outlet, giving the chain a role in local shopping beyond food retail. A typical store measured between 10,000 and 20,000 square feet and offered a wide variety of value-priced merchandise. King's operated as a regional variety retailer, with its name associated with discount shopping and broad merchandise selection across six western states. In February 2017, the company announced that it would close all of its stores. King's ceased operations in May 2017, ending a business that had begun in Burley more than a century earlier. The supplied account identifies no merger, successor, or later brand transition, so the chain's documented history concludes with its closure.
