The Genuine MS® Store at the Mississippi State Fair, October 7-18 2002

This year, one new opportunity for fairgoers is to purchase items from Mississippi businesses from all over the state in one place, the Genuine MS® Store. The pop-up store will be located in the new Mississippi Trade Mart on the Mississippi State Fairgrounds.

After enjoying the rides, games, live musical performances, and shows, head on over to the store (located in the Ag Expo) to check out the products Mississippi agriculturists, producers, craftspeople, and entrepreneurs have to offer. You'll find leather goods, coffee mugs, T-shirts, popcorn, jewelry, pecan treats, rice, grits, and so much more!

Goods from the store make great holiday, birthday, and just-because gifts. Purchasing from Mississippi businesses is the gift that really keeps on giving! This is the perfect place to support local businesses!
