KK Discount (@kkdiscount) is one of several businesses that was affected by the Mulberry St fire last Friday. The shop is temporarily closed until further notice. To donate to our emergency relief fund for those impacted, visit the link in our bio. In the meantime, as we coordinate resources, read below on why Chinatown businesses like KK Discount are essential to protect and preserve:
KK Discount, known to many as the "mom-and-pop version of Target," was started in 1990 by Mr. and Mrs. Li. They immigrated to the US with only a few dollars in their pocket to pursue their own American Dream of starting a business.
Over 30 years later, KK Discount has remained a beloved family-owned business and a vital component of Chinatown. The shop has seen loyal customers go through major life events like graduating college and starting families. These customers keep returning to pack their bags with goods that range from quality chef knives to the traditional Chinese dishware that many love.
Thinking of KK Discount and our community in this difficult time. ❤️
