PD’s: A Downtown Franklin Treasure
Have you been to PD’s? If not, you are missing out!
PD’s aka Premier Discounters in downtown Franklin…if you’ve haven’t heard of PD’s, put it on your list!
Welcome to the best kept secret in Franklin!
This shopping emporium is off the beaten path in an inconspicuous building with no markings.
There’s no sign out front.
You won’t know you’re there until you get to the front door and find a handwritten paper sign in the window with the name and hours of the establishment.
It’s always amazing that you learn the history behind the places that you shop, and you eat, and you live!
There’s so much!
So, PD’s was originally a freight line depot, next to the railroad tracks here. Then, it was a Civil War triage center.
Sherri Porter has owned it since 1998.
Sherri is known to be “spunky” and a salvage baby at heart-as her parents both lived and breathed the business.
Her store of 29 years is such an incredible success, with no advertising whatsoever!
PD’s is a furniture-everything home store.
Sherri has local vendors that she works with, and she also works with international vendors as well.
Maybe the best designed train depot in town!
PD’s is a local secret with furniture, bedding, and all kinds of home decor! Every week is something new and you never know what they will have but that’s what makes it fun!
“Her store requires that you walk around it one way, then the other, looking up and down, then down and up. I promise if a picture is worth 1,000 words, then this post says it all. You be the judge.
And, happy shopping! It’s worth the drive south.”
