Sawpit Mercantile, originally founded in 1897, serves both the Telluride and Down Valleycommunities, as a local purveyor of gas, liquor, food (barbecue), and general supplies. Purchase price includes both the business and the real estate. The store has been under the control of present ownership since June of 2012 and, since that time, has dramatically changed the composition of sales from primarily a gas station to more of a restaurant and ''inside sales-oriented'' entity. Detailed records of the business include a daily summary of operations for each day the store has been open making planning and financial comparisons very manageable. One of the sellers a licensed Colorado real estate broker and one of the sellers.
