Sune's Dry Goods & Grocery
Drummond Island is at the end of the line, linked to the mainland by a ferry that leaves twice an hour, so it stands to reason that it would have a carefully edited grocery-general store. Here it is, not only a good-size grocery but a mini-department store. Sune's (a Finnish forename pronounced "SOON-eez") was begun in 1938. It carries Dickies; a complete line of Woolrich clothing (women's, men's, blankets, slippers, hats, gloves); American Greetings cards, many gift items, candles, and jewelry; souvenirs and some regional books; glassware, toys, small appliances; sweats and Ts, some quite funny —"a little bit of everything," says fourth-generation owner Kelly Sune.
