Orvis, 702 Cross Hill Road Suite 400-B: November 2025 no comments
Orvis was founded in 1856, and impinged very infrequently on my attention over the last 170 years. I had the vague idea it was some sort of L. L. Bean thing, (apparently there was more fishing involved than I expected) and totally missed that fact that a store had opened in Cross Hill Market, taking the place of PlantHouse which closed in March 2024.
Here are State stories on the store announcement, and the store opening. There doesn't yet seem to be on on the closing. The chain announced the grand opening on their Facebook just shy of a year ago.
The closing doesn't really have anything to do with Columbia as a market. The chain is in big trouble and is closing about half their stores (for now).
The "November" closing date is just a guess, given that we are more than half-way through October and the closing sale has already started.
