Since 1795, a lot of businesses have come and gone in Seviervilleâs commercial district. It is not unusual to hear older residents refer to the location of businesses by mentioning what business used to occupy the space where a current business is located. While such descriptions can be confusing to new and younger residents, interesting information about our past can be learned from them. Some of these businesses include:
Sevier County Bank
Founded in 1909, Sevier County Bank has been in operation longer than any business in Sevierville. In 2006, the main office of the historic business relocated on East Main Street. Sevier County Bank is now located very close to where it started over a century ago. Actually, the new bank building sits where the White Store, a popular grocery store for many years once stood.
