This little neighborhood grocery store has existed for over 40 years! It offers a wide variety of quality products in bulk. It is well located and open 6 days a week.
In fact it's more than just a food market; it also offers workshops such as soap and cookie making or kombucha preparation. You can also stop by for a nice coffee or a complete lunch while doing some people-watching on the Main.
At Frenco's you get a lot of different nuts and grains, dried herbs, fruits and spices, pastas, candies, organic vegetables and homemade peanut butter.
That's not all! You can fill and refill your bottles of different body, home and dish soaps! Same with oils. Isn't it great?!
This way you contribute to an ecological, zero waste approach while only getting the quantity you need, which is quite economical.
Reducing waste and buying local, healthy food, organic, vegetarian and vegan -- there are many reasons to visit Frenco. Give it a try!
