Specifications
We are seeking a retail space rental with parking in cities the size of Knoxville, Johnson City, Chattanooga, and Nashville. Our ideal store is 1000-2500 square feet. We will work with build-to-suit or self-build interior development options.
We require running water, electricity, wi-fi and will need one bathroom and a small kitchenette out of customer sight. Electrical equipment and plugs are retail-standard. We have no special items with large electrical needs.
It takes us 90-120 days from lease execution to complete the buildout, stock the store, train the staff, and soft open.

We are currently accepting vendor applications. We will maintain a wide variety of socks and are looking for quality vendors for socks and other feet-related items in the categories of fun/wacky, custom sock-making equipment, fun gifts, medical grade, sports grade/team, outdoor socks for hiking, and hobbies. We are open to specialty items such as dance tights, ballet shoes, foot care and related beauty products, and more.
