Cato Fashions — Local services in Jesup

It would be nice if I didn’t have to leave a star at all! I was in search of specific attire for an event so I came to Jesup to shop at David’s Men & Women’s Boutique. They didn’t have what I was looking for so the gentleman suggested I try Cato’s being that there’s not many options in the area. Upon entry in the store, there wasn’t any associates on the floor but my friend and I browsed around to see what they had to offer.

As I told the gentleman who suggested I try Cato’s, “I literally forget that they even exist” and after this humiliating experience I’ll continue to keep them out...

The manger of Cato’s in Jesup is one of the most professional people I have ever met. She is friendly and kind.

I will definitely return to this store. Five...
