Supply Chain

To help local and regional economies, The Fresh Market is inviting customers to include wild shrimp in their family meals and support local fishermen. The company's stores in coastal states from North Carolina to Louisiana are selling shrimp directly from the waters off their states. Said to be more nutritious and superior in flavor to their farm-raised counterparts, wild shrimp are offered in three varieties: red, white, and pink.

The world's largest retailer said it is making a commitment to improve the management of valuable and threatened forests.

The retailer also offers all-natural beef and chicken lines.

The natural and organics supermarket chain will introduce Whole Trade Guarantee roses by the dozen, plus a special Camembert and Champagne pairing for moms.
