Ypsilanti’s new Michigan General Store celebrated its grand opening on Saturday, a little over a month since the store opened on Cross Street in Depot Town.

The bustling event featured vendors who passed out samples of products carried in the store and DJs for entertainment, the Ypsilanti Courier reports.

Among the vendors: Perkins Pickles, Malcolm Tradition Gourmet Shortbread Cookies, Arbor Brewing Company, Frog Island Brewing Company and J. Trees Cellars.

Mark Teachout co-founded the MI General Store next to Cafe Ollie in Ypsilanti's Depot Town.

The gourmet specialty shop opened Dec. 12 at 44 E. Cross St. It features made-in-Michigan products and primarily sells wine, beer, chocolate, snacks and cheese. The plan is also to offer beer and wine tastings and act as a venue for artists to perform.

The owners, Mark Teachout and Danielle Schwerin, own the neighboring Cafe Ollie, which opened in January 2011.

Teachout said business in the Michigan General Store’s first month has been good, according to the report.
