The history of the location, said Haley Thomas, director of sales and marketing at Ballreich's, adds to the nostalgic feel of the store, which she says will be a "destination" for Tiffin residents and visitors to the area.
The focus at the store, will be Ballreich's, with Ballreich's products and history featured throughout the store, with local and Ohio-based products and potato-themed items. Granny Ballreich’s will offer a "wide range" of products and prices to customers, and will include an eclectic mix of memorabilia, merchandise and apparel.
A virtual tour room is to be featured at the store, which would provide images of Ballreich's history, the art of its potato chip production and a glimpse of various media from throughout the country that have featured Ballreich's products.
For almost 100 years, Ballreich's has been a strong name of tradition in the Tiffin community, and 2015 will be a celebration of the company's history and nostalgic beginning, as well as its future, as new products are added and the showcase of Granny B's opens to the public.
