campbellsPORTAGE, Mich.- While it was hard to find a strip mall in Portage that had more than one business open due to the snow emergency, FOX17 walked into a mom and pop shop on Westnedge Ave. to find three jolly men.

Campbell’s Auto Supply has been in business for many years and actually does quite well on days when others might see customers trickle in.

“Usually a day like today it’s snow plows, batteries, alternators, wipers…” said counter salesman Jerry Meeker. They consider themselves a small fish in a big pond and as long as one or two of the employees can make it into work, they will be there to serve.
