Canino Produce To Close After 60 Years

(Houston, TX)  --  After 60 years, Canino Produce at Houston Farmers Market is closing down.  Co-owner Bill Canino says the business used to sell produce from 200 local farmers, but lately the number has dropped to about five.  

As a result, he now buys most of his produce from wholesalers, and he faces competition from supermarkets.  

Canino also points out he's no longer young, and wants to concentrate on his health.  The rest of the Houston Farmers Market, located on Airline Drive, is not closing, and is undergoing redevelopment.
