Thanks!

Thanks, Darren, for posting this. The building looks very good, but I wish MiniArt would offer us some different accessories- the doors, windows, etc. are identical for all their kits, as if houses and businesses from Normandy to Moscow all had the same fixtures.

Hi
Another nice looking building from Miniart.
As Bill say's I wish they would change the Fittings for the doors & windows sometimes.

yes nice building but .... seems to me that shop tittle is not so "real" !!!
In french language you cannot start a shop name like so !!! May be am missing something but I never seen before such name !!!
Can be : Economat = that means sort of grocery
Or : Boutique economique de Normandie
Or : Epicerie de Normandie

Ok .... never know ???? I will do some sourcing about this ( am living not so far )!!!

Edit; have done some recherch and I think am not so wrong : the only similar name I found is ; Comptoir moderne economique de Normandie that is a group of small companies of groceries and similar
I don't know who help them to find such a funny tittle !!!

Could it be a case of wanting to say "Normandy Grocer" and missing out on the nuances of the French language?

YES probably but it was very easy for such acompany to have some french dealer or modeler helping them to translate correctly !!!
Accuraty!!!! accuraty !!!
