Good2Gourmet on Vitti Street Closes After One Year

By |

Good2Gourmet, the prepared meal business located on Vitti Street, closed at the end of last week. The store offered a broad range of fresh food choices aimed to meet everyone’s needs—however, according to Lisa Strupp, an owner of Good2Gourmet, “Ultimately, we were not able to grow the business to a size that made sense for our initial vision.”
