In February of 1961, Carlie C and Joyce McLamb opened a small country store in Johnston County on Highway 242. Right from the start, they understood the challenges that lay ahead of them. They knew that it would be hard work, but neither one of them had ever been afraid of working hard for what they wanted. The store quickly became known for its quality meats, fair prices, and customer service. Carlie C had acquired the store from Otis McLamb. They had been running the store for a little over a year when the landlord would not renew their lease. At about the same time, Mr. Floyd Altman, who owned a grocery store on Highway 301 between Dunn and Benson, approached Carlie C and Joyce about operating the store he was running.

Edwards is the grocery store of choice in Four Oaks. I've always found them to have a great selection of meats. The staff ALWAYS asks me if they can help in any way. They are so nice, and there's never much of a line when you finish…
Beats the Butcher by Todd L via Insider Pages on 4/30/2008
I always found this location to have some of the best cuts and prices of meat you can find. We went out of our way on occasion to stop in and stock up on chicken and beef because the prices and specials are THAT good!
