After managing the store for over 30 years, Kurt passed the leadership to his daughter, Tara Mullin, who became a managing partner in 2020. The company was recognized as a Mt. Pleasant Small Business of the Year Finalist in 2018 and 2023 and has been voted Mt. Pleasant’s favorite shoe shop numerous times. This year, Brown’s Shoe Fit Co. is celebrating its 72nd business anniversary, reflecting its strong commitment to high-quality service and local engagement.
