Arcade’s wine and supply store has
recently changed names and
owners. Ken and Sue Kibler
purchased Wolfe’s Wines & Brew
House in 2013. Their new business
named Main Street Wines & Supplies
opened this past fall and has a wide
variety of new and existing products.
A ribbon cutting ceremony was held
on February 27 hosted by the Arcade
Area Chamber of Commerce.
Main St Wines & Supplies offers the
community everything they need to
make a variety of wines, beers,
sodas and cheeses. In addition to
their make-it-yourself kits they have
wine accessories, glasses and
custom labels. They have added
Watkins and Advocare products to
their merchandise.
Main Street Wines & Supplies Grand Opening
The Kiblers are no strangers to
business ownership. They
previously owned a construction
company and were seeking a new
business to own and operate.
When the wine supply store
became available they jumped at
the opportunity. The Kibler’s are
enjoying the retail business venture
and are actively attending
educational opportunities to learn
more about the industry.
Chamber members and leaders helped to host the ribbon- cutting ceremony. President Dan Hoffmann said “It’s great to have them providing this niche to the wine and beer connoisseurs to our community”
