Click to Enlarge  The produce department  has continued to become more and more important to the success of a super market in the late 1990's.  We strive for more variety and better quality every year.  Due to our continued focus on this department, improved transportation, and high tech growing methods that the industry has developed, I feel we have been able to keep up with the increased demands for you, our customer.  While all these improvements have taken place in the fruit and vegetable business, the price in real dollars has decreased in the last 50 years.  Through expansions, our store was designed to emphasize produce and give us a better tool to give you, our customer, what you have come to expect in a first class supermarket.  And to top it off, you don't have to go to the "BIG CITY", we have it right here in Spooner, Wisconsin.  We receive 5 or more produce deliveries every week and have access to just about any fruit or vegetable that comes into this country - again, right here in Northern Wisconsin.

Ken Marske got his start with the store as a high school student in 1983.  Ken worked off and on in the store in several departments through the years.  He came back to organization in 1995 and had a brief tour as the night manager until an opportunity in the produce department presented itself.  Ken really enjoys the produce business and it shows as you cruise through his department.  When you are in the department, be sure and say hello, and if you have any questions, problems or special requests, be sure and let him know.
