MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WAKA) – The Renfroe’s Market location on McGehee Road in Montgomery has been temporarily closed following a health department inspection.

This is the Official Statement from Renfroe’s Market sent to Action 8 News:

“The health and safety of our customers and employees have always been a top priority at Renfroe’s Market. Following a recent Health Department inspection that identified pest-related concerns at our McGehee Road location, the store is now temporarily closed.

“While the Health Department did not visually see any rodents, they did see evidence of rodent activity in a few areas of the store.

“We take these findings seriously and accept our responsibility to address them. We hold ourselves to a higher standard, and in this instance, we fell short of that standard. We are taking the necessary steps to thoroughly remediate the facility, correct the identified issues, and work closely with the Health Department to meet all requirements for reopening.

“For nearly 30 years, our family has had the privilege of serving this community, and we recognize that our customers place their trust in us every day. We do not take that trust lightly, and we are committed to doing what is necessary to maintain it.

“We apologize to our customers for the inconvenience and disappointment this closure may cause. Our focus is on correcting the issues and reopening as soon as we have met all necessary health and safety requirements.

“We appreciate the continued patience, understanding, and support of our customers and community.”
