Business Directory

An Alphabetic Directory of Business and Professionals in Agincourt and Vicinity including (ultimately) information about location, length of operation, predecessors–successors, and the principal names associated with each.

In its 150+ years, Agincourt has benefitted from hundreds of businesses and professionals. Many of those listed here have been long-lived and their owners have been connected with one another and with events significant in community history — or at least my telling of it. Time (and retirement) will allow me to put a little meat on these bones, so be patient. Eventually, we hope to give each of these a visual presence in the community.
