The local grocery store owner was getting older and had no one to take over once he retired.
Word went around that he was offering to sell the grocery store to anyone who wanted to buy it, the store had been around for a long time, and no one wanted to see it closed down, I spoke to my husband about it and we decided to purchase the property and retain it as a grocery store, folks in city were glad with the news and promised to continue buying local! Yes, there was much competition from large chain stores, but we believed this was a wise investment. There were a few things we needed to replace before reopening the store. While we retained the old name, the place needed some paint and a modern cooling system. The previous owner told us to change the ventilation program since the aged one gave him lots of troubles. We called in an AC professional to inspect the ductwork and see which program would best cool or heat the store, then since it was a big commercial space, the professional went with a commercial heating and A/C system. It was more energy-efficient and suited for a locale where several people spent a lot of time. After purchasing the commercial system, the next upgrade came, which took some time to complete. After that, we had to sign an heating plus A/C service agreement with a local AC servicing and repair business. The agreement covered heating and A/C service and repairs. In addition, we got 24-hour emergency repairs, duct cleaning and a free smart thermostat to go with the modern central heating and A/C system.
