Hobby Lobby started operation August 3, 1972 with 300 square feet of retail space, situated in North Oklahoma City. This was a retail outgrowth of Greco Products, a miniature picture frame firm, established by David Green in 1970. In January 1973, the operation was moved to a house near N. W. 23rd and Western, and the amount of retail space was increased to approximately 1, 000 square feet. Through the years this modest beginning has evolved into 451 stores which operates in 38 states.
