Quincy wholesaler set to close
QUINCY (WGEM) — Williams Shooters Supply, a firearms and ammunition distributor in Quincy, plans to close within a year, the President of the company said Friday morning.
One of the contributing factors to the decision is the advantage some competing online retailers have by not charging sales tax said Williams.
Williams Shooters Supply sells only directly to suppliers.....
Williams said increasingly, to be viable in his part of the market channel he would have to sell directly to the consumer, something he did not want to do.
“I’ve been unwilling to change our business philosophy and thankfully my parents were great savers and successful business people and I’ve done my best to continue that,” William stated. “We’re going to wind it up while we still have enough money to retire,” Williams said.
