Menard started

Astounding, shouldn't something be said about that mammoth west of Ann Arbor! No, no, not the wooly mammoth, anyway that place called Menards. The colossal store that makes other gigantic box stores feel like shoeboxes! It takes after a Walmart mated with a Home Depot! In what capacity may you explain this spot and not use an exorbitant number of yell centers! General executive Mark Blumberg says that at 244,000 square feet (excluding outside lumberyard and nursery space), "it's verifiably twofold the range of Lowe's"  www tm menards inc   not far off, anyway he incorporates, "That is a little Lowe's." John Menard started his business in 1959, building post horse shields in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, and after a short time added a lumberyard to supply his improvement groups. He called it Menards Cashway Lumber and opened stores around the Midwest. https://www.evernote.com/shard/s591/sh/8bca79c7-6fed-41d5-be84-216f29302bdc/4982dbd3573e982506
