The Fresh Market opened two new locations April 23 – in Jensen Beach, Florida, and Wethersfield, Connecticut – that mark the retailer’s 170th and 171st stores, respectively.
Customers at both locations experienced the traditional The Fresh Market opening celebration, featuring giveaways, samples and the cracking of a more than 80-pound wheel of parmesan cheese.
The Fresh Market also made $2,000 donations to the Treasure Coast Food Bank and Connecticut Foodshare.
“We are incredibly excited and proud to bring our signature brand of service and hospitality to both of these wonderful communities,” said The Fresh Market CEO Brian Johnson. “We are confident our new guests will enjoy everything the Fresh Market has to offer as we strive to make their everyday eating extraordinary.”
Customers in Jensen Beach and Wethersfield will find a range of products, including high quality meat and seafood, fresh produce, ready-to-cook heat-and-eat meals, local and global items and private label offerings.
The Fresh Market will open another location next week in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. By April 30, the retailer will have debuted 12 new stores in six months.
