It was the current store owner's husband and mother-in-law who started Erixons in Grums 46 years ago.

Over the years, the focus on the range has changed, but it has always been about fashion and clothing.

But Thursday is the last day that the store is open.

- I want to be able to retire.

I have already been working overtime for a few years now, says store owner Marita Erixon, who has been involved since the start.

Although there was a stakeholder who was prepared to take over the business, the landlord wanted to bring in a different type of business on the premises.

With that, the takeover fell and now Grum's only clothing store goes to the grave.

In the clip above, Marita Erixon talks about how she feels about Grums now being without a clothing store.
