Dutchie's Fresh Market was founded by Mike Renkema. His family has a rich history in the food service industry that started in farming and eventually expanded into the marketplace. The Renkema family started selling their crops in a small scale market booth in St. Jacob's over thirty years ago. Although the family originally tried to grow their own crops, to sustain their market demand they eventually had to import additional produce. Their market booth ultimately expanded into several other cities such as London, Stratford, and Elmer, etc.. Around ten years ago, Mike's father retired and the Renkema farm was sold, as Mike was financially unable to buy it outright at the time. So what did he do? He chose to start from the ground up, in Renkema tradition, starting in the market place with only a truck full of product. This market booth expanded into what Dutchie's is today! A full scale grocery store that brought market traditions of local products with the ease of grocery store shopping.

Dutchie's newest endeavor is raising their own quality meat for sale in the store. Our very own beef is locally raised on family farms and produced at local government inspected facilities. We have started to introduce our own locally raised lamb as well!
