Meet the 3 Fan Favorite Products in Heinen’s Produce Department

At Heinen’s, we don’t just bring in products from trusted artisans, farmers, and growers, we make original products too!

Take our Produce Department for example. Operating on the philosophy that fresh is best, we source top-quality ingredients and create made-in-house products including fresh squeezed juices, fresh cut fruit, and fresh ground nut butters.

Over the years, these products have become staples of our brand, and for good reason. They’re delicious, convenient, wholesome, and guaranteed fresh! That’s why they were each awarded the distinct title of Heinen’s Fan Favorite.

Produced at our local state-of-the-art manufacturing facility or in our stores, get a behind-the-scenes peek at how we make these three Fan Favorite items, available daily in our Produce Department.

Heinen’s Fresh Squeezed Juices

We have been fresh squeezing orange juice in-store since the 1940s! Today, we have automated juicers in each of our stores and have added grapefruit juice to our everyday offering.

Our process for juicing starts at our warehouse where juicing citrus is inspected to ensure it meets our strict quality standards.

The produce then arrives to our stores where it is sanitized, juiced, and bottled by our Produce Associates for customers to enjoy.

During the winter, when citrus is at its peak, you can even find seasonal fresh squeezed juices, like blood orange. Regardless of the time of year, we are only squeezing the best varieties available to us.

Heinen’s Fresh Cut Fruit

Our commitment to freshness and convenience in our Produce Department continues with our selection of fresh cut fruit.

Heinen’s Fresh Ground Nut Butters

Heinen's Grocery Store

By Heinen's Grocery Store

In 1929, Joe Heinen opened the doors of a small butcher shop on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, aiming to establish himself as the city’s purveyor of quality meats. As customers came into Heinen’s new shop for their meat purchases, they began asking him to carry groceries as well. Joe added homemade peanut butter, pickles and donuts and by 1933, business had grown enough to include a line of produce and canned goods. Heinen’s Grocery Store was born.
