Story

Established in November 2003, Peach’s Fruit Market is Regional Victoria’s leading Fruit and Vegetable retail and wholesale outlet. The Petrie’s have a long and successful family tradition in the fruit & veggie industry, with over 40 years experience in the local market.

From humble beginning at Valpeid's Fruit shop in Sturt Street, Charlie Petrie began the families involvement within the industry and quickly developed a reputation for his warm welcome and affordable quality fruit and veggies.

Having worked in the Costa Group it was a natural progression for Mark and Kate Petrie to continue the family tradition so they purchased the business in 2003 and continued to operate the store from it’s Coronet St location in Wendouree.

Over the years the Petrie family's connection with the marketplace has grown with a chain of retail outlets throughout Victoria. Today Mark & Kate’s talent as greengrocers and enthusiasm for the business is evident in the presentation of their local produce markets in Ballarat, Horsham, Ararat, Torquay, Grovedale, Hamilton and St Arnard. With a lifetime of knowledge and experience in the industry as Fruitier's, the Petrie name continues to be well respected as Mark and Kate teach the next generation of Petrie's the value of hard work and good customer service.

Peach’s Fruit Market vision is to supply the freshest fruit & veggies to the country. Supporting the community through local clubs and association and working cooperatively with our valued partners, Peach's continue to build on their proud history.With over 70 locally employed staff, our aim is to deliver our customers unsurpassed choice and the best produce available all year round.

We are very grateful to the people who have shared our journey and continue to contribute to our success.
