BEHAR - HILLTOWN - 1979

 

Never shopped at Behar myself, but it was quite a well known carpet store in town - especially its location at the foot of Hilltown.
It opened for biz on 26 April 1979, and not only did they sell the usual Axminster & Wilton type of product but it also stocked a modern range designed by Mary Quant.
The manager back then was Bob McKillop.
I'm guessing that their "Buzz Into" slogan is derived from the saying "as snug as a bug in a rug".
