Lance and Kristin Davis, owners of Honey’s Marketplace in Kanab, Utah, are excited to announce their upcoming acquisition of Joe’s Main Street Market in Panguitch, Utah. The Davis family, well-established in the grocery business, purchased Honey’s Marketplace in 2021 and are now expanding their operations with this new venture.
Lance Davis brings valuable experience to this acquisition, having previously served as store director of Honey’s Marketplace for five years before becoming an owner.
“This is something we have been thinking about for a long time, and we are excited about the new adventure,” said Lance Davis. “We hope to continue providing great service and maintain the high standards that Joe and Nannette have worked so hard to build over the years.”
Joe and Nannette Nay are passing the torch after 21 years of dedicated service to the Panguitch community. The Nays have built a strong reputation, and the Davis family plans to honor that legacy while gradually making improvements to the store. There are no immediate plans to change staffing, management, or customer experience, ensuring a smooth transition for employees and customers alike.
The store will remain open and operate as usual throughout the ownership transition, which is expected to be completed in the coming months. In the long term, Lance and Kristin plan to make improvements to their business as they strive to meet the growing needs of the community. As Lance and Kristin look to the future, they are excited about the opportunities Southern Utah presents.
“We see great potential here, and we are eager to continue growing our business in this beautiful region full of great people,” said Kristin Davis.
