The company was started by Louis Grossman, a door-to-door salesman who
lived on Bunker Hill Street in Quincy. The business grew, and
Grossman's sons joined the business. After World War I, they bought up
surplus military buildings − including some from the Hingham Naval
Ammunition Deport − dismantled them and sold off everything that could
be salvaged. It was a process that they would repeat after World War
II. In 1920, they purchased a site on Granite Street in Quincy which
became the site of its retail store. The company began to focus more of
the lumber and building material end of the business, especially with
growth of the suburbs which followed World War II. By the early 1960's,
Grossman's had grown to 35 stores in the six New England states,
including several South Shore locations. In 1969, it was purchased by
Evans Products of Oregon. Evans went bankrupt in 1985, and the
Grossman's chain was the only division which emerged from bankruptcy the
following year. The company prospered briefly, but was hit hard by
increased competition in the 1990's. The store on Granite Street in
Quincy closed in 1993."
