Folgarelli’s Market was started by Boniface “Fox”
and
Marge Folgarelli in 1978. Since that time the market
has
undergone plenty of changes and is into its third generation
of family ownership.
The Market was originally based on the “Old World”
concept that Fox had grown up and worked in since
1942 in Detroit with Lombardi Foods wholesale and
retail stores. Moving to Traverse City to be closer
to
their daughter Donna and Grandchildren after retirement,
boredom set in and Folgarelli’s Market was born.
Since
then Folgarelli’s Market & Wine Shop has become
a
cornerstone of old world, gourmet foods and wine in
Northern Michigan.
Come in and cruise our shelves full of ingredients any
“foodie” would drool over and a deli selection
of meats
and cheeses rivaled by few. Folgarelli’s has also
grown into
one of Northern Michigan’s leading wine retailers
with a
inventory of over 2000 labels of hand selected wines.
Not
to mention a great by the glass list to enjoy with one
of our
world famous sandwiches.
See you soon.
.
Cheers,
Donna Folgarelli
