The Kennecott Corporation company store sold just about anything you needed. If it didn't, you could order items through the Sears and Roebuck catalog and they would be delivered to the Kennecott post office. The warehouse stored grocery items but most importantly, the nuts, bolts and spare parts needed to repair the mill structures and mines.
