Arena Produce Company

Found out about this through ColumbusUnderground.com and thought I'd track down this out-of-the-way place for a visit. A strange scene -- a nearly empty warehouse with a makeshift grocery in one small area. The walk-in cooler has an average selection of fruits and vegetables. We picked up a couple dozen lemons at 3 for a dollar; I saw some avocados (a little overripe) for a dollar each... both good prices. They also have a few prepackaged goods If the prices are consistently cheaper, it's probably worth it for a big buy of fresh produce.

I was looking for a place to get decent prices on bulk produce. I came across this place via El Google, and thought I'd give it a shot. Oi. The prices were OKAY (not great), and worse, nothing looked fresh.. there were plenty things on the verge of going off, or actually already off. Selection was fairly poor. I'd much rather spend more at a place with fresh produce; I mean, produce is expensive and I like a deal, but not enough to buy rotting food.

I am giving it one star as it is no longer open to the public only wholsale to stroes and stuff.Loved it when it was here..sometimes got phenomenal deals. went there today and found out the store is gone and they only sell wholesale in large quantities..the man was very rude to a relative who went to talk to them and the relative was very upset with how he was treated.If they dont care about their smaller walk in costumers anymore who cares about them..they rarely had organic foods and bit by bit the service and mark down got worst and worst..I got some 50 lbs bags of things and they rotted in 2 days when would expect it to last at least 10 to 14 days so had to throw most of it out.
