Brothers-in-law Merle O. “Sam” Powell and Otto Brethouwer unveiled their new Independent Grocers Alliance store at 130 N. Interocean Ave. in the summer of 1935, complete with large front windows and a skylight. The white stone “IGA” symbols on both sides of the building and the “July 1935” date stone at the top center can still be found on the present-day Holyoke Enterprise building. In 1945, after Powell and Brethouwer had retired, the lot to the north (present-day Carniceria y Abarrotes Aldama) was purchased, and a frozen food locker plant, bakery and coffee shop were added. — Source: Phillips County Museum
