Today in Del's History - Del's Expands to Meet Growing Demand in 2008

Jul 18, 2024
In 2008, Del's Popcorn Shop Downtown embarked on a significant expansion project to enhance its offerings and accommodate increasing customer demand. Owner Lou Ann Jacobs made the strategic decision to capitalize on an adjacent storefront becoming available, marking a pivotal moment in the shop's history.

The expansion project, which was underway throughout the year, focused on integrating the new space seamlessly with Del's existing location. While the current area remained unchanged, the additional space was dedicated to showcasing more of Del's renowned products and an expanded selection of gifts.

The remodeling efforts were completed by September 2008, just in time to accommodate the influx of visitors and shoppers during the peak holiday season. This strategic timing ensured that Del's Popcorn Shop in downtown Decatur was well-prepared to meet the heightened demand for its popular popcorn tins, flavored popcorn varieties, hand-whipped fudge, and other delectable treats.

As construction progressed, anticipation built within the Decatur community and beyond, eager to see how Del's Popcorn Shop would elevate its customer experience with the expanded space and product offerings. The project not only underscored Del's Popcorn Shop's dedication to growth but also reinforced its position as a beloved local institution catering to the community's sweet tooth and gift-giving needs.
