The Wilmington location is one of three Gentlemen’s Corner locations in North Carolina. The original store, launched by Chris Dalrymple, has been in business in Pinehurst for more than 30 years. In 2011, Dalrymple paired with Harrison Sasser to open the Wilmington store and in 2014, the two partnered again to start a store in Chapel Hill. Another shop is located in Palm Beach, Florida.
