Sadly, I forsee a potential decline of goods quality in the future of JoJos. I doubt that the Heaths consortium will hire and pay for a good manager. Heaths consortium does not have a good record in satellite stores. Grocery store in Meredith - gone. Hardware store in Meredith - gone. Stores in Ossipee - gone.

I do hope that Heaths can pull this one off and to keep JoJos the great market that it is.
I hope JoJos stays a top notch place as well. that said - on more than one occasion I have seen Russ "go off" on a customer and act in a way that I thought was way over the top..

I also recall a thread a couple of years ago concerning the alleged poor treatment of a maintenance person from Camp Tecumseh.

so the presence of an "owner" isn't always a guarantee of success.
