Ben Franklin's to Have Final Goodbye on June 20th

Ben Franklin's to Have Final Goodbye on June 20th
Dexter, Missouri - Weber’s Ben Franklin has been in business in downtown Dexter for 109 years.  One of the oldest business in our community.

It began in 1909 as Weber’s Variety Store, and joined the Ben Franklin franchise in 1930. 

The craft store is owned by Joe Weber, and due to his declining health the store will close by the end of June 2018.   The family has decided to sell the building as well and are hoping another business will purchase the building.

You can always see one smiling face each day and she will be missed greatly! Donna West manages the business and has been employed by the store for over thirty years, since she graduated high school.  She will retire this month as well.

Even though Ben Franklin is now considered a craft store, remnants of the variety store past still remain. Toys, puzzles, greeting cards, kitchen accessories, gift items, and candy continue to be part of Weber’s merchandise mix. 

Weber’s Ben Franklin is located at 31 East Stoddard Street in Dexter and is open 8:30 to 5:30 Monday through Saturday until June 23rd.  At this time 75% off sales are continued and a Final Goodbye is planned on Wednesday, June 20th from 9:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.  Cookies and punch will be served.

Please stop in and show how grateful our community is to the Weber family for over 100 years.  They will truly be missed!!
