A popular independent online greengrocer that has been selling to its local community will close the doors to its shop on Saturday (May 28) and will make two workers redundant - but the company will still function as normal aside from retailing. Kerry's Fresh Fruit and Veg is based at Colliers Business Park on Fieldfare Road in Cotgrave.
The family business started out in 1885, when Richard and Sarah Kerry had a stall selling geese and hens in Nottingham's Old Market Square. In the present day, the business now operates as an online greengrocer, and helped to provide food to people during the Covid pandemic.
Customers can order their groceries online, on the phone or by emailing, which trades through the week. Around four years ago, Kerry's Fresh opened a shop for the local community which was open on Fridays and Saturdays, according to its owners, where local people could come into the shop and pick their fruit and veg.
