Julie Harris came to the ACCORD/Allegany Business Center in January 2010. She had previously owned and operated a consignment business, which she had sold, and wanted to improve her business skills in order to open a new consignment shop in a new location. This dream became a reality May 1, 2010, upon the opening of Julie’s Consignment Cottage at 15 W. Pearl Street in Wellsville, NY.

Julie’s Consignment Cottage is open Wednesday – Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and on Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.  The store offers a blend of antiques and locally made pieces of art, women’s clothing and accessories, and must-have household items for both indoors and out. Julie’s is a unique venue for shopping and consigning in a boutique setting.
