Ore Mercantile was opened in 2019 by owner Jon Tubbs as a space where retailersโ€”both local and from around the countryโ€”could sell their products. Over the years, the Ore team carried a wide variety of products from shops like:

  • Deep Creek Trading Co.
  • Filson
  • Dixie
  • Katin USA
  • Huey & Hotrod
  • Birmingham Originals
  • Duck Camp
  • And many more

In 2020, Ore Mercantile added its own Deli & Bodgeaโ€”serving up delicious hot & cold sandwiches as well as deli sides made fresh daily.

Closing after 5 years in Birmingham

The Ore Mercantile team announced the closing of the establishment on their Instagram page earlier today.

Ore Mercantile will be open until Saturday, February 17. Do yourself a favor and swing by to grab a sandwich and peruse their wide variety of quality products. Ore Mercantile will be offering 40% off all non-vintage items until closing.

Oreโ€™s neighbor, Sheppardโ€™s Pet Supply, announced their plans to close last week.
