There isn't another operating team we would feel more comfortable with to prove the larger store format.

"We are pleased to open this new facility, our second in Columbus and the largest in the Pickups Plus chain of stores," added owner Larry McCoy. "The initial direction that was given to us by Pickups Plus allowed us to run a very profitable store and made the decision to expand our properties easier.
