The Local Skinny! Henderson Fruit And Produce Expands To Warrenton

It’s been a few years since Warrenton has had a grocery store, but Chris Fisher, owner of Henderson Fruit and Produce, is getting ready to change that – hopefully, by Saturday.

Stop by 140 S. Main St. in downtown Warrenton to check out Henderson Fruit and Produce of Warrenton.

People familiar with the Henderson location at 1215 Old Norlina Rd. may see some familiar items, Fisher said, but he described the Warrenton location as more of a butcher shop, deli and retail store and less of the bulk items that the Henderson store is known for.

Having two locations obviously means double the work, but Fisher is excited for the opportunity and said the fact that they’re only 10 or so miles apart makes it doable.

“I’ve got a great staff – they do most of the work,” he said on Thursday’s segment of The Local Skinny!

The new location has a prime spot in downtown Warrenton, and Fisher said customers can come in for fresh meats, produce, deli items and more.

Need to order for a special occasion? No problem. They can get pigs for pig pickin’s and keep ribeyes and tenderloins in stock. Most special orders are next-day deliveries, but if it’s a large order, it could take a couple of days.

Check out the weekend specials on their Facebook page, or give the Warrenton store a call at 252.879.0234.
