There is some exciting news about Main Street Antique Mall, which has been located in Mesa for the past ten years. It is now under new ownership. Katy Katz, who joined the mall as a dealer in 2011 and became manager in 2012, is now the new owner.
David and Donna Hawkins established the business in 2010 and, with their knowledge, skills and experience, built it into a thriving and popular antique mall. They will remain a part of the mall as active dealers and business consultants.
Main Street Antique Mall has about 300 Dealers in 28,000 square feet of space. The Dealers specialize in true antiques, collectibles, glassware, furniture, Shabby Chic, Farmhouse and more. The selection of merchandise, quality and pricing make this store a fun destination worth visiting. Layaway is offered on items priced $100 or more with 1/3 down for 30 days.
Storewide sales are being held on September 18, 19 and 20 and October 22, 23, 24 and 25. Outdoor Markets are hosted one Saturday a month starting in November and running through April.
New owner Katy says, “I decided to pursue my passion of antiques as a full-time career and Main Street Antique Mall and antiques have been my whole life ever since. I love every aspect of being in this business. From a Dealer perspective, I love the thrill of the hunt—finding that piece that I can restore, repurpose or shabby chic and make a customer’s dream come true! From a management perspective, I have built relationships with dealers, staff and customers over the years that I believe will help carry Main Street Antique Mall into the future.”
She continues, “I am fortunate to work with some of the best dealers and staff in the business. My team is dedicated to superior customer service and making sure customers have an enjoyable experience. Our goal is to greet all customers so they feel welcome. The floor staff works extremely hard to keep the store clean and organized all while attending to each customer’s needs. They are constantly moving around the store to help customers with merchandise plus they assist with loading furniture to make things easier for the customer. My cashier team is the first and last impression on a customer and the staff works diligently to get the customer checked out with as little wait time as possible. They play a crucial role in our advertising campaigns by constantly posting new merchandise and removing ads as merchandise sells.”
When asked about goals, Katy said, “Voted Best Antique Mall by the East Valley Tribune, our goal is to remain one of the top antique stores in the Valley. We are dedicated to making sure our dealers are successful. We are excited about future growth opportunities; however at this time our focus is remaining the best antique mall in the East Valley.”
