Great River Popcorn

07/08/2024

After having a week to reflect on our closing, we would like to thank all of you who supported us over the years. We met many wonderful people and truly appreciate the loyalty you have shown us. We watched a lot of families grow and will have many lasting memories. Your response to our store closing the last month was amazing and we thank you for making one last visit to wish us well. We were proud of the 40+ flavors of popcorn we made in house and serving up some of the best Wisconsin made ice cream - Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream. We also were fortunate to carry many great products made from local artisans. There are a lot of talented people in this area!
Finally, a special and heartfelt thank you to those who worked with us over the years. In any business, you can’t be successful if you don’t surround yourself with great people. And we sure had them! From Bailee and Kinsey early on along with Sheila, Sara, Clara and others to our final crew of Kelli and Kirstin we were blessed. We thank them for their hard work, kindness, loyalty and allowing us to be a part of their lives. And then there’s Larry…..A special shout out to you Larry for all that you did for us over the years. We know we couldn’t have made it if it hadn’t been for you. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all you’ve done!
Thank you ALL again for ten great years!
Jim & Sharon

Well we are down to our last two days. Jim is still popping today and we have a good amount of flavors to choose from. We hope you'll stop in for one last bag of deliciousness!

Today we mark 10 years we've been in business. It's hard to believe. We'll be popping all week and still have a good amount of delicious Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream left. We also reduced again the price on some of our local products so be sure to stop in by Saturday! Thank you!

Just to let you know......We are still making fresh popcorn every day and still have some great flavors of Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream available so be sure to stop in soon. We have a sale going on most of the local products we have here. We also have a few of the items we used in our business for sale. Our equipment and supplies will be sold once we are closed. Hope to see you soon!

Happy Father’s Day to all the great men in our lives!

I had to share this picture that came up in my memories today. It was taken 10 years ago…2 weeks before we opened the store & our granddaughters Laney & Kendall were learning how to make popcorn. ❤️ Time sure does fly by.

As many of you may know, we put Great River Popcorn up for sale awhile back. These past ten years have flown by and while we've enjoyed the business and all the great people we've met along the way; we would like more time to spend with family and maybe do a little traveling. Sadly, while there has been interest, a buyer hasn't been found. After much thought, we've decided if nothing comes up between now and the end of June, we will close instead of renewing our license. Until then, we will "keep poppin" our delicious popcorn and hope to see some of your familiar faces. We know there are some gift certificates outstanding so if you have one, please be sure to stop in before June 29 and buy some goodies. Thank you!!

We are closed today for Memorial Day. Please take a moment today to remember the freedoms we have because of those who have served, are currently serving and those who gave the ultimate sacrifice- their lives. 🇺🇸
