After closing its doors last year Greek’s Quality Meats has found a new home after being purchased by Fresh Cuts Market in Bridgewater.
Prior to closing Greek’s had operated in Lunenburg County for 70 years, during which they became most well known for their Lunenburg Sausage and Lunenburg Pudding.
Fresh Cuts Owner Andrew Langille says ever since their closure his customers have been asking for Greek’s, “It’s actually been overwhelming at times, people calling, emailing and on our social media all asking when or if we would ever carry the product again.” said Langille.
The requests from customers had an impact on Langille and prompted him to begin discussions with the owners of Greek’s Betty and Peter MacNeil about purchasing the business.
After a few months of discussion, a deal was reached that would see Fresh Cuts gain ownership of the Greek’s trademark, equipment, recipes, and processes for making their products. The purchase did not include the old Greek’s building.
Fresh Cuts has already begun producing Lunenburg Sausage at their retail location in Bridgewater, however, Langille says they are still looking for somewhere to make the pudding as it an extensive process that requires more space than they currently have available.
