Abstract:

Jon Marc Department Store in West Jefferson in Ashe County is a runner-up in the 2000 Business North Carolina Small Business of the Year competition. The store, owned and managed by Libby Cockerham, was founded in 1964 and has survived in a period when many family-owned businesses have fallen victim to larger chain stores. The retail clothing and shoe business employs eleven and projects revenues of $1 million in 2000.
