PROVINCETOWN Business owner Rachel Harrington thrives on taking chances.
She opened B.Xclusive streetwear and accessory store in a basement in 2007. When demand grew, she moved the shop above ground. Now, though, she’s opening a store twice the size, and rebranding.
During the COVID-19 threat Harrington is among Provincetown business owners on the move such as Christine Meegan switching to online sales only at Christina’s Jewelry or Doug Freeman taking a chance on selling his West End Salon and finding another place to work.
Harrington, though, is expanding.
Coming to town
As a Vermont native, the beauty on the Cape captivated Harrington. She first came to town on a trip to the dune shacks with friends, during a snowstorm.
