"Their support has been pivotal to our success. All of this wouldn't have been possible without the help of many people." That success could lead to another location for Ties by Marcus, although Alexander said the business would never become a chain store that has a distinguishable style from its competitors. "Well, first off I'm not even sure who has the kind of products we sell," he said. "We've had great success, with people coming from 30 to 50 miles away to buy the product. They keep asking us to open a store in their towns. So we are interested in adding a second store, perhaps as soon as next year." The store also carries a wide variety of standard neckties. Alexander said the latest trends in fashions are on display. "Everything with bright, vibrant color and multi-colors are hot," he said. "Pattern on pattern is also a trend that is wide open and popular." Store hours are Tuesdays through Fridays from 10:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. For information, call 910.223.5413 or visit www.tiesbymarcus.com CV
