Since The Beginning

The Family Of Fresh Food

In the early 1930s, my Grandfather, Joseph Roch, started the family business – bringing the freshest fruits and vegetables to retail and foodservice customers all over southern New England. After 50 years of serving the West Warwick community through Roch's Fruit and Produce, we moved our wholesale business to a state-of-the-art HACCP certified distribution warehouse in West Greenwich, Rhode Island. In 2001 we opened Roch’s Fresh Foods, Narrangansett, a full-service specialty market that serves South County. And in March of 2023, we opened our second Roch’s Fresh Foods market adjacent to our wholesale operation in West Greenwich.

Food, Family, & Friends.

Supporting RI Food Banks

We believe fresh, homemade food is cause for celebration. So, whether you're throwing a party for the happy couple or a new baby, hosting the extended family, or planning a business luncheon for 10 or 200, we'll help make it a deliciously memorable event.

Feeding Our Future

Our Fresh Start Childrens Program

Since 2006, we’ve helped school food service supplier Sodexo procure, process, and deliver fresh fruits and vegetables from local farms and out-of-state purveyors to local elementary schools. What started with delivery to two local elementary schools is now an ever-growing production and delivery service to 71 cafeterias throughout Rhode Island.
