Jordan's was founded in 1961 in "beautiful, downtown Edom, Texas" by Cranfill and Frances Jordan, at that time selling groceries and hardware. Our store even featured a cafe and grill which proved to be very popular with area residents. Within two years, Jordan's outgrew its original building and decided to build a larger, more modern building. Property located directly across the street was acquired and construction began on the first air-conditioned commercial building in Edom. The new building created quite a stir and was even featured in a story in the Tyler newspaper. With a larger building, Jordan's now needed additional products just to fill space, and televisions and appliances seemed to be a good fit.
