Your Premier Destination for Unique Antiques & Collectibles
Salamanca Mall Antiques was founded in 1982 by Bill Guche and Peter Kolokouris, who transformed a partially vacant plaza in Farmington, NY, into a thriving antique destination. Starting with a weekend flea market and a small antique shop housing 12 dealers, the business expanded rapidly, occupying half the plaza within years. The success of Ontario Mall Antiques inspired the launch of Salamanca Mall Antiques, which now spans 30,000 square feet with 1,000+ dealers and over 1 million items. Guided by principles of customer service, clean facilities, and product value, the business has thrived for over four decades.Today, the legacy continues under the leadership of Bill and Peters sons, Matthew Guche and Demitri Kolokouris, who uphold the traditions of quality and service established by their predecessors. The mall offers diverse categories, including military artifacts, books, tools, pre-20th-century items, jewelry, and furniture, catering to collectors and casual shoppers alike. With a commitment to fostering a vibrant community of dealers and customers, Salamanca Mall Antiques remains a premier destination for unique, high-quality antiques.
