Featured Tenant – Rocky Top

By June 13, 2017 November 9th, 2017 Tenants

Rocky Top has been a staple in the Northfield community for the last 33 years. We are excited to work with them in their new space located at Heritage Square (2010 Jefferson Road), right off of Highway 3 South. We stopped in and took a minute to interview Missy Harmon, the new owner of this local establishment. Read along to learn her journey.

Tell us about how your business was started. How did you get involved in the industry?

It’s been a part of my family for as long as I remember. The screen printing press was purchased by my dad. My grandpa (Dennis Holt) started screen printing in his basement. In 1995 the business was moved to Division Street. After her mom (Ann Maas) passed away in 2015 after a 2 year battle with breast cancer, Missy having grown up around the equipment quit nursing school and took the opportunity to fill her moms shoes like no one else could have.

Missy’s favorite part of the business is making a customers vision into a project.

 What kind of services does your business offer?

Screen printing and embroidery, vinyl lettering, photo transfers, and sublimation.

Where do you see your business going in the future?

We will continue to grow and offer custom design to our customers — both large and small.

Why is your business located in Northfield? What about Northfield benefits your business?

Northfield is supportive – whether you’re right next door or across town. The local support is amazing.

Tell us about the space your business is located in. Is there anything you do to use the space that feels unique to your business?

We moved out to Heritage Square from downtown hoping for more visibility. It’s been my motto, “A fresh place for a fresh face.” Downtown was my moms vision, this is my vision. We are looking forward to expanding our customer base.

 What advice do you have for other business owners looking for a space?
