The Market History
The Dekalb Farmers Market began on June 2nd, 1977 as a small 7,500 sq. ft. produce stand in Decatur, Georgia. Since that beginning, we have grown into a true world market. The original founder and owner of the market, Robert Blazer, is still in charge of operations along with his wife, Barbara and son, Daniel.
Our reputation in the industry is as a pioneer in fresh food distribution to the consumer. We are very unique in receiving direct global shipments of fresh food without costly warehousing and distribution delays. We believe we provide the highest quality, lowest cost, and largest variety of fresh food products currently available.
We thank you for your support which allows us to continually improve this world market for you, our customers.
