Parchie (Par-Chee) was started by David Wishon as a restaurant named after his father Bill Wishon sr; or Parchie. Bill gave David a $24,000 loan, which he used to start his now 30 year old restaurant that has deep ties with New Hanover High School and downtown Wilmington; the company's hometown. After watching his father slave over a grill and deal with the entailments of the food industry; Alex Wishon decided that the restaurant business was not for him. David’s son Alex went on to change the history of the name Parchie by taking it to a new market, clothing. Alex learned the basics of how to run a business from his family, and parents, who were business owners themselves. Alex had soon put his dreams in motion and started Parchie Clothing Supply LLC after partnering with two of his best friends, Dylan and Joseph, who helped create the technical and creative aspects of the company. Parchie Clothing Supply was born.
