Retail - Hendersonville, North Carolina, United States
The first Houser Shoes opened in Gastonia, NC in 1976. In 2000, Gary and his daughter, Beth, opened GB Shoe Warehouse - one of the Southeast's largest shoe stores. This 35,000 square foot concept store offers brand name shoes at prices up to 75 percent off regular department store prices. GB has a huge selection of Women's Shoes, Men's Shoes, and Children's Shoes, all under one roof. Around the same time, Houser Shoes ventured into selling shoes online with the development of an online store. In 2004, HouserShoes.com was launched with the goal of being a leading seller of shoes online. The website has continued to grow, expanding the product base and adding new features. Despite the lack of face to face interaction when buying shoes online, Gary Houser has always kept the same philosophy in mind – that customers are the most important people in any business.Currently, there are approximately 150 people employed with Houser Shoes. Houser Shoes, GB Shoe Warehouse, and GB Shoes form a ten-store operation that is one of the Southeast's largest independent retailers. The company is still owned and operated by Gary Houser.
