Owner of Bruni’s Fine Foods isn’t ready to retire just yet; his goal is to find a buyer who will continue to operate popular Wellington Street West location as a butcher shop
One of the Sault’s most beloved butcher shops is up for sale — but the owner isn’t planning on hanging up his apron just yet.
“It’s only on the market because of my want to take some time off — not because I don’t like what I do,” he told SooToday. “This is my 44th year on my own in business and I don’t want to sell the building and not have some kind of butcher shop going on.”Born in southern Italy, Bruni moved to Sault Ste. Marie in 1956 when he was five years old with his mother and grandmother. His dad had moved here five years earlier, in 1951.
The experience he gained as an up-and-coming butcher led him to open up the Butcher’s Block on Second Line West in 1979. He moved across the street 10 years later and rebranded the business as Bruni’s Butcher’s Block. “We’re still here because of the ability to work and analyze yourself and be complacent,” he says. “We’ve made mistakes, but it’s how you accept them and bounce back. Thankfully, the customers have been loyal to us through good and bad.”
