Southmall Fruit Shop

The fruit shop covers fresh produce — fruit and vegetables — with a range of Asian grocery lines stocked alongside, which makes it a useful stop for ingredients the supermarket does not carry.

It trades seven days from 187 Great South Road and opens earlier and closes later than much of the centre. Being an independent greengrocer, pricing and range shift with what is in season and what has come in, so it rewards a look rather than a list.
