greengrocer
n.
one who sells fruits and vegetables
Greengrocer
A greengrocer is a
retail trader in
fruit and
vegetables; that is, in green
groceries. Greengrocer is primarily a
British term, and greengrocer's shops were once common in towns and villages. They have been affected by the rise to dominance of
supermarkets, but many can be found managing small shops or stores in towns and cities and in some villages. Greengrocers can also be found in street markets and malls, or managing produce departments at supermarkets. Such traders typically handle the entire business of buying, selling, and book-keeping themselves.
