For small business, it's location, location, location

The Toronto Star features Leigh & Harlow, a west Queen West clothing boutique begun by Torontonians Gus Papaioannou and Tony Vlachos. Open less than two years Leigh & Harlow has been so successful the owner's recently opened a second location, at the Shops at Don Mills.

"When Gus Papaioannou and Tony Vlachos decided to open up a clothing store in Toronto, the focus of their energies came down to one little truth � location is everything."

"Their shop, Leigh & Harlow, carries men's and ladies' fashion brands from Europe, the U.S. and Canada, which Papaioannou describes as young, contemporary fashion, not too edgy.

"Our demographic is young professional, single or married, anywhere between 23 to 45," he said. "This is the fashion-conscious individual who wants quality, and to look good without being generic."

"So what better location for a shop than Queen Street West, which they opened a year and a half ago."
