Description
Born in 1876, Glenn was 49 years old when he established Pico Rents, originally a medical supply store. His vision was to provide essential "sick room" supplies, addressing the healthcare needs of his community. However, Glenn's entrepreneurial spirit didn’t stop there. Recognizing an opportunity to expand, he made the bold decision to include party supplies in his offerings. This unusual combination of medical and celebratory supplies created a unique identity for Pico Rents.
For decades, the store served its dual-purpose clientele, becoming a local fixture. On one side, it catered to those seeking medical support, while on the other, it was a go-to destination for hosting joyful events. The juxtaposition of these two distinct product lines earned the business its reputation as a quirky yet reliable establishment.
This dual-purpose operation continued until 1997, when Pico Rents finally transitioned away from its "sick room" supplies focus, likely in response to evolving market demands. By then, it had cemented its legacy as a business willing to adapt and grow. Glenn's unconventional idea to blend health care with festivities has left an indelible mark on the story of Pico Rents, showcasing the power of innovation and adaptability in small business.
