Normal Human Sets Up Shop in Westport

UpJohn Blount is proud to work with Normal Human – a “wears and wares” local shop that recently found a new home in one of our spaces in Westport.

We caught up with Dan Mahaney, Co-Owner at the popular new shop for both locals and those passing through.
UJB: Are you a KC Native?
My business partner, Pat, and I were both born and raised in Kansas City. We each moved away for college for a few years, but moved back after to pursue careers and eventually start Normal Human.
UJB: What was the inspiration behind Normal Human?
We started the business with the idea of being more of a general print shop, not necessarily focused on apparel; we also print housewares like bar towels, aprons, etc, as well as flat prints such as cards and posters. The apparel aspect has always been a part of the operation, and we’ve just tried to remain flexible in producing what is most in-demand at any given time, which lately has been t-shirts.
UJB: Where was the shop before and what made you look for a new space?
We started in Mission, KS, but were in a spot that wasn’t conducive to foot traffic. We actually partnered with Aron Real Estate, whose focus is on the Crossroads district, and they introduced us to Marshal and Kevin, when we expanded our search to Westport. We had actually toured the space before Upjohn Blount had the listing, but weren’t sold on it. We came back to it when Upjohn Blount started showing it, and were able to reach a great agreement! We had to move pretty quickly, as the end of the lease on our space in Mission was rapidly approaching, and Marshal and Kevin partnered with Aron and us to expedite the process and get us moved in a timely manner!
We highly recommend stopping in and picking up a locally made item at Normal Human – or a few!

Right Size Case Study: Computer Recycling LLC

David Batcheller, Owner of Computer Recycling, was ready for a change.Computer Recycling LLC

“We were located just down Wornall Road when I noticed this space had come available. We had too much retail space that we just weren’t using.”

Luckily, Batcheller was already a tenant of UpJohn Blount, and when the time came for his business to move, Marshal Blount was ready to assist.

“Marshal and I are both entrepenuer-minded, which is why we work well together,” said Batcheller.

Computer Recycling LLC is a leader in responsible IT Asset recycling and retirement solutions for businesses — both large and small — and institutions across the Midwest.   Centrally located in Kansas City, the company has been in the business for over 15 years.  The space is shared with IT Central – Laptop Squad, also developed by Batcheller.

Now that both businesses have settled into their new more efficient space, Batcheller is much happier.

“I would recommend UpJohn Blount to anyone looking for the right space for their business,” Batcheller concludes.

 

Case Study: Family Bicycles

imagesFamily Bicycles owner Theresa Van Ackeren was ready for a change.

“I needed a new home for my business, and during my search I noticed a space in the same neighborhood that looked promising.” Soon Theresa met Marshal Blount and decided the new destination would suit her needs perfectly.

“It was right next to the Trolley Trail, which is perfect for our customers.” Theresa was also looking forward to having a parking lot in front of her business, which also serves nicely as a bike testing area. The visibility of the new location was also a nice feature that added to the appeal.

“Working with Marshal has been a pleasure – and he’s very easy to work with.”

After two months in the new space, Family Bicycles customers are visiting the new location and Theresa is happy to have a more cost effective, right-sized business space.

Right Size Case Study: Pampered Paws

Pampered PawsPampered Paws Finds the Perfect Fit

One of UpJohn Blount’s specialties is “right sizing” – finding a space that fits your needs today – and tomorrow.

Cheryl Wyrick, owner of Pampered Paws, a pet grooming boutique in Waldo, needed a more efficient space for her business – and one that suited her customers’ needs. UpJohn Blount was able to find a nearby space that worked perfectly for Pampered Paws.

“Marshal Blount has been a blessing to us – he helped us on his own accord!” said Cheryl. “We searched for months for a new space. When we found a spot we really wanted, he was able to purchase the building just for us and made it affordable.”

Now that Cheryl and her furry friends have been settled into the new space since spring of 2013, Cheryl says, “We have been much more successful in our new space and were allowed to decorate and landscape as we wished. It is nice to work with an individual instead of a corporation – Marshal is a real human being with a heart. We’re able to call, text or email when we need something with a quick response. I can only say positive things about working with Marshal Blount.”

After Cheryl was settled into the new space, she shared her move with customers: “This space is more of a “destination”.  We have private parking, and a big yard in the back for the dogs who stay with us. It feels like more of a spa now. We know you will love it too.”
