Bon Jos

About Us

BonJos: A commitment to customer service past and present.

In 1964 two gentlemen named Bonrud and Jossart joined together to start Bon Jos women’s clothing in central minnesota. In 1996 Patti Stewart purchased the business and continued the tradition of providing quality women’s clothing and accessories. She grew the business to include more locations and added tanning beds to her stores.

In March 2023, Denise Drown became the owner and is ready to continue bringing fashion to our customers with a fresh approach at both our Alexandria and Little Falls locations.
