To all the Facebook friends of the Riva Food Market, as most of you probably already know, the market recently closed.
I would like to thank all of our customers, the locals, contractors, state and county workers, builders, FedEx and UPS drivers, trades people, landscapers and tourists for their patronage over the last twenty six years. In particular I want to offer a special thanks to those who have offered their kind words and cards and to those who often went out of their way to support a local business.
I would also like to thank the more than three hundred and sixty full time, part time and seasonal employees that have worked at the market over the years, many as their first job and those vendors who saw fit to serve a small business as well as a national chain.
The building and property has been sold to a local business concern and it is my sincere hope that whatever type of business they choose will be supported by the community.
