Here’s our round-up of the latest Wellesley, Mass., business news:

Campbell Supply closes after long run

Campbell Supply Co. is one of those relatively rare Wellesley businesses that’s been around for decades but that few people in town probably knew. The business is at 26 Washington St. in lower falls behind Taylor Rental.

Molly Campbell Palmer posted on Instagram about the shutdown of the business, started by her Italian immigrant grandfather and run later by her dad and his brothers. She and her brother worked there, too, at one time. Campbell Supplies might not have been “glamorous,” but it has helped many people keep their private and commercial vehicles running over the years.
