About West Creek Mercantile

West Creek Mercantile will be closed from March 1, 2026 - May 31, 2026 while we prepare for and welcome the newest addition to our family. We will respond to inquiries as time permits, but will not be accepting any new orders until we reopen. Please follow us on Instagram, @westcreekmercantile, and subscribe to our emails to stay up to date on shop re-opening updates. —— Hi, I'm Sam. I grew up behind the counter of a Thai takeout restaurant turned convenience store called Lucky Express on Nantucket Island, MA. My parents immigrated to the U.S. in the 70s and somehow found themselves on the Faraway Island where they opened up a modest, but successful store at 13 West Creek Road. It was at Lucky’s where my passions for art, crafts, and business blossomed. When I opened up wsamnipat stationery & gift shop in 2020, it was an Instagram account - named after me - to showcase the things I made as a hobby. I didn’t come up with an actual business name, but it eventually grew into a business - this business. West Creek Mercantile stocks my own handcrafted goods, and one day I hope to expand into stocking goods from other small businesses and artists (locally and from around the world). Outside of my small business, I work as a Marketing Manager for Sports Reference, enjoy short walks to the nearest pizza place, and binge-watching the Hallmark Channel.Read their story
