Fruit Center Inc.

Fruit Center Marketplace is a South Shore grocery store that bills itself as the region’s favorite. Its shelves emphasize local and organic products, and the store promotes its produce, including seasonal fruit and vegetables from New England, as the best in the region. Fresh meat and fish and a deli that slices to order round out the fresh departments, alongside a full range of top-quality grocery items.

Beyond the basics, the store carries an extensive selection of wine and craft beer and a floral department that makes creative flower arrangements. It also mixes in some local partnerships and extras. Fruit Center has collaborated with Trillium Brewing on a product called Food Haul, and book recommendations from Lisa Donovan’s Lisa’s Book Club are now available in the store for readers looking for their next pick.
