The Anderson–Hobson Mercantile Store is a historic commercial building at 201 Schuman Street in Foreman, Arkansas. It is a three-story brick structure with modest Italianate styling, mainly visible in brick corbelling details and segmented-arch window crowns. It was built c. 1910, as part of a major growth spurt in the county following the arrival of the railroad. It is one of the few commercial buildings in the county to survive from that period.[1]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.
