Since 1946, Mallott’s General Store has been a Native owned, family operated business serving Yakutat and surrounding communities. Started in the spare room of the Mallott family home, it has now grown into a 3,000+ square feet retail store front.
Right below the Mallott family home was Mallott’s General Store; a one stop shop for all necessary dry goods to survive the Alaskan bush, as well as medicine, toys, and other assorted goods.
c. 1945
Founded in 1946 by JB & Emma Mallott, their goal was to serve the community of Yakutat and bring fresh produce and quality goods to nourish their people.
