White's Mercantile

Nashville


This modern take on the general store hits all the right notes, embodying the vibe of the 12South neighborhood where it resides: cool, quirky and gorgeous. The store stocks a rotating inventory of higher-end men’s and women’s clothing, accessories and personal goods, as well as kitchen and home items and gifts for children and pets.

Owner Holly Williams is also a singer-songwriter (and descendent of the famous Hanks).
