Barn fresh fruit

MARIO Pivetta and Renzo Greguol (Terry), along with their partners, Connie and Judy, purchased Emerald Fruit Barn in August 2005.
Mario has successfully owned and operated four other fruit and vegetable businesses from Chadstone to Mordialloc.
Before moving to Emerald he spent 10 years operating a wholesale business at The Melbourne Produce Market in Footscray.
Terry successfully managed Mario’s, a boutique fruit shop in Toorak, for more than 20 years.
He was one of the first people to introduce salad mixes to the public.
For the past five years he has alternated between fruit shops and the fresh flower industry.
With their vast knowledge and experience of more than 30 years, each in the retail/ wholesale fruit, vegetable and flower industries, and with the support of a loyal and professional team of Kaye, Lea, Marietta, Domenic, Casey, Anne and Tom, the new-look business is sure to make an impact on the local community.
The Melbourne Market is visited at least five times a week to ensure the freshness and quality of the produce; complemented by an ever expanding range of pastas, sauces, jams, herbs, nuts, confectionery.
