SHREWSBURY – A staple of downtown Shrewsbury will soon shut its doors.
Shrewsbury Country Shoppe – located at 598 Main St. in Shrewsbury – will close “within the month,” according to a July 31 Facebook post made by Debbie Cottam, the store’s owner.
“The sad thing is I can’t be part of the small business community we’ve built over the last seven years,” Cottam said in the Facebook post. “I’m going to miss all our awesome customers, the people that worked here. It’s just been a blessing to be able to be a part of it. I will continue to support the community in any way that I can.
“The decision is best for my family, which is most important,” she said.
Cottam did not go into great detail about the shoppe’s closing though she mentioned that the company had been hacked in March. After the shoppe closes, Cottam said she will work on other prospects, transitioning to something in the design realm.
There will be a closing sale that includes up to 30% off the entire store.
