Meat Department

Here are some thoughts regarding the "uniqueness" of the Hegedorns Super Market Meat Department and why it continues to be a leader among its peers in the family owned small supermarket industry, in the midst of enormous competition.

• Special attention and care of customers, who continue to come from around the area, communities of Wayne County, Fairport, City of Rochester, Penfield and others as they have for over 50 years.
• Repeat and loyal customers are a mainstay of the Meat Department, which works extremely hard to exceed the expectations of "special attention" with every order.
• That philosophy in the Meat Department, as in all departments, continues since the store's founder and family patriarch Bruce Hegedorn opened the grocery store in 1953.

1. All fresh meats at Hegedorns are custom cut and packaged on the premises.
2. Customers receive added special care and preparation of special orders without additional charges.
3. We maintain a competitive, high value price range.
4. Extreme diligence in ordering and maintaining freshness of the products, which remains an important comfort factor for our customers

• Experience of the Meat Department staff is another key reason for its continued and growing acceptance in the community.  Collectively, the five full-time members of the meat department have 118 years experience.

1. Gary Silco 40 years at Hegedorns.
2. Mark Sniders 24 years at Hegedorns, the last 7 as manager of the Meat Department.
3. Gordon Hehir 43 years.
4. Mike Lincoln 11 years.
