A long-awaited green grocer was opened by a lifelong Whitton resident in Whitton High Street last week.
Tony Burgess from Whitton Dean opened the grocers on May 14, after working in the fruit and vegetable business since he was 12 years old, starting off as a Saturday boy at Richmond Market.
He said: “I wanted to work closer to home so have been looking for a unit in the Whitton area.
"By taking a stall at the Whitton Community Market I got to know what was going on and luckily I have found a great unit in the centre of the High Street”.
