Specialties

A tasty new market serving up fresh, local food and trusted brands.

History

Established in 2014.

So, how’d we get here? The vision for Hart’s Local Grocers began in the mind of Glenn Kellogg, a Washington, D.C., urban economic planner who landed in Rochester in 2011 with his wife, who actually grew up in the Browncroft neighborhood. Glenn drafted a business plan in 2012 and gathered a team of industry and startup veterans from around the region and the country. Their first meeting aptly came to order around a dining room table.

The task they faced was to launch a new city market that would offer a perfect combination of local food, regional cuisine, and daily grocery needs.

In their market research, the team discovered a once-​loved Rochester neighborhood market called Hart’s – a name not seen here since the 1940s. A name that offered a fitting tribute to local history. A way to connect bygone charm with forward-​looking optimism.

A new business was born.

Meet the Manager

Colleen G.

Manager

Colleen is a Buffalonian turned Rochesterian that believes in the local community, and her staff. When Glenn K first created Hart’s, Colleen was eager to sign on, hoping to connect the neighborhood of the East End to the region’s greatest foods and their makers!

Any day you drop in, there is a good chance you will find Colleen cruising the store and arranging displays until they are just right :-)
