Tandys

Tandys was a franchise music store based on the main street of Hamilton, just a few shops down from Tracs. It used to be located in Hamilton East until the early 1990s, when it moved premises to inside the Centreplace mall. In the early 2000s it shifted to just outside the main entrance to the mall whre it remained until closing and being re-branded as a CD and DVD Store in 2005.

This particular store was notable for resisting the generic imperative of mainstream music stores by keeping less mainstream artists in stock.
