Welcome to Chatter with BNC, Business North Carolina's weekly podcast, serving up interviews with some of the Tar Heel State's most interesting people.
Today's episode features an interview with Michal Bay, owner of Merino Mill in Mooresville. Bay grew up in eastern Turkey. He began his career in America selling furniture wholesale from his truck. Later, he became a distributor for Istanbul-based rug manufacturer Merinos. He grew so successful that he purchased the vacant Burlington Mill in Mooresville and restored it. Once covered in graffiti, with dozens of holes in the roof, the mill today is thriving with offices, retail and restaurants. The N.C. chapter of the American Planning Association honored the mill with its 2017 “Great Transformation” Award.
