Barons Marketplace Opens to “Delicious” Reviews
After much buzz surrounding the opening of Barons Marketplace in Wildomar’s new Renaissance Plaza, the specialty and natural food market opened its doors to an eager crowd on February 11th and received terrific reviews. It features fresh local produce, everyday groceries that are all-natural, specialty cheeses, antipasto and hot soup bars, a bulk foods section, and an excellent wine and beer selection, all at competitive prices. Barons Marketplace is a welcome addition to Wildomar’s growing community.
So what has all the buzz been about? Well, it’s the food, of course. Barons Marketplace carries items that you won’t typically find in supermarkets. From specialty cheeses to artisan bread, fresh grab n’ go meals to organic frozen meals, they carry products that you would find in upscale markets on the east coast like Zabar’s in New York and Dean & Deluca in Washington, DC. The difference, however, is value. The buyers at Barons Marketplace negotiate fiercely to sell their specialty products for usually 25% to 35% less than those other markets. Joe Shemirani, President and founder of Barons Marketplace, believes that great food that is good for you shouldn’t cost a lot. “Our philosophy is simple,” explains Joe. “We carry quality products at rock-bottom prices every day. We don’t have hot specials, sales or reward cards. The only time our prices change, up or down, is if our costs change.” >> Read the full story.
