Better Meals Build Better Families at Jerry's Market
Gerald Vermette runs Jerry's Market in Biddeford Saco offering custom cut meats with a wide selection across 60 feet of counter space. Meat makes up two thirds of sales, growth since 1947, staff now 12, plans to hire more, and a 10 cent parking coupon in Simard's lot boosts convenience. Free home delivery and self service grocery lines complement the brisk but challenged downtown market.
