Krown Kredit (later King Kredit) was a clothing store which opened in the Spring of 1961 in the former R. C. Brown shop location at 1812 3rd Avenue North. It was owned by the Sher family, which later opened Mr King Furniture nearby. The store's mascot, "Mr K", was a small mustachioed man wearing a crown and cape and holding a scepter.

Renovations to the facade were undertaken in collaboration with Engel Realty and the property owner. Carroll Harmon designed the new shopfront and the Bari Corporation performed the construction.

The shop suffered minor smoke damage in a major fire that broke out on the upper floor of the adjacent Graves Building on December 17, 1970.
