Abstract:

Nickols' Southern Lion was created off the premise of a popular marketplace venture, BlackLion, which closed after a 27 year run. Located in a 55,000 square foot facility, previously housing the first level of Sears at Carolina Place Mall in Pineville, Southern Lion is believed to be the largest 100% black-owned retail business in the southeast.
