Pic Pay Opens Two New Stores
Pic 'Ν Pay Stores, Inc.
(AMEX) launched its expan
sion program for the fiscal
year ending June 1977 with the
grand opening of August ^6 of
two new stores in Charlotte.
The announcement was
made jointly by Albert G
Segal and Alvin E. Levine.
chairman and president, re
spectively, who noted that
these were the fifth and sixth
Pic Ν Pay stores in Charlotte.
The two new stores are locat
ed at 4525 North Tryon Street
and 5933 Pineville Road.
Mr. Segal said that these
Charlotte grand openings
were especially appropriate,
since Pic 'N Pay opened its
historic first store in this city
in 1857. Between then and now
the chain grew to 316 units, of
which 250 are either free
standing or located in shop
ping centers and malls, and 66
are leased shoe departments
in major variety chains. The
company plans to open SO to 60
new units in the current fiscal
year.
He pointed out that Pic 'N
Pay is the largest self-service
shoe chain in the Southeastern
United States, but that in
recent years the company has
broken out of its regional
perimeters and begun to ex
pand northward and west
ward. Pic 'N Pay now ope
rates in 13 states, including
Ohio, Indiana, and Arkansas.
"North Carolina is still our
home," Mr. Segal said. "The
state has been good to us, and
we like to think we've been
good for the state. We present
ly have more Pic 'N I'ay
stores in this state than > any
other, and no matter h lar
we expand geograpln iy,
emphasis will continui .» be
placed on our home m.i.
"There are still man uca
tions in North Carulin. that
can use - in fact, thai ne« ι - a
Pic 'N Pay store," Mi <nal
continued. "We don't >· our
expansion in this slate ver
coming to an end. Thi n has
been, and continues ι<· be,
dynamic growth potential
here. Towns in which we
located a single Pic \ i'ay
store have grown into ci les,
where we now need Inn or
more stores.
"Charlotte is a case in point.
Our original single store lias
burgeoned into six stores, .ind
we believe the city can use ι
more of them. Our concept has I
caught on, and appears lu lie |
in the early stages of a long
range growth pattern.
Mr. Levine described the
concept: "We're basiealh a
self-service operation Vet it
customers want service it's
there just for the askinu fclach
store has on open display
•about 8,000 pairs 01 unlxixed
men's and women's and child
ren's shoes, from uiiicli shop
pers can make theii ^elections
in privacy, without · îles pres

handbags and pani. hose are
also shown and. as > super
market, customer ay for
their purchases at îeckout

think of ourselves super
market of shoes.
