Archer Paper Goods quietly opened a Lenox Square location recently.
The retailer has replaced La Fete Chocolat in the Buckhead mall, at 3393 Peachtree Road NE.
La Fete closed its doors early-April.
“We’re testing a 12-month lease,” Dan Collier, owner of the chain of stores, in an email told What Now Atlanta.
“Same focus on paper goods and writing instruments, but in an attractive smaller footprint.”
With the addition of the Buckhead outpost, Archer Paper Goods has five locations, including two in Atlanta—Ponce City Market and The Battery Atlanta.
A storefront is planned for Charlotte, NC and is expected to open in summer 2019.
Collier also owns and operates three locations of The Merchant, including one in Lenox Square, two candy stores (Collier Candy Co. and Sweet Inman’s Candies) and Read Shop in Vinings.
He’s also opening a department store in the Atlanta Dairies development.

I walked past that Quick Quick every day on the way into work and never saw anyone in there. I can’t imagine how much money it must have lost trying to sell overpriced magazines while paying PCM rent.
Yet how does a shop that sells candy, and overpriced aspirin and batteries pay PCM rent???
