Connecticut. Their roadmap to success was simple - provide quality
products, offer them at fair prices, and deliver it all to
customers through great service. On a cold February morning in of
1949 the rst EbLens would open for business. Little did Ebner and
Leonard know that one day their rst store would be joined by dozens
more; not only in Connecticut but throughout Massachusetts, Rhode
