Guests at these new stores can look forward to an elevated shopping experience featuring carefully selected fresh, local, and organic products, a variety of expertly curated ready-to-eat meals, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere The Fresh Market is known for.

Both celebrations kicked off with ribbon-cutting ceremonies at 8:00 am, commemorating the opening of these newest additions to The Fresh Market fleet. The stores opened dressed for the holidays and ready for guests to pre-order their holiday meals and sides and also find special gifts, stocking stuffers, and décor.

"The Fresh Market really shines during the holiday season, and we are thrilled to bring The Fresh Market experience to Mansfield and Framingham," said Jason Potter, CEO of The Fresh Market. "The Fresh Market is the fresh food destination for our guests, offering high-quality products and convenient options that inspire delicious meals and create memorable occasions.”

Expertly curated products and ready-to-eat restaurant selections are available such as in-house smoked pit BBQ featuring fresh brisket, ribs and pork. Also offered is Hot and Fresh Pizza made with artisanal crust, sauce comprised of Italian-grown crushed tomatoes and salt and topped with BelGioioso mozzarella cheese.
