MARQUETTE -- If you own a restaurant or if you just like to cook, you may be interested in JRJ Food Equipment and Sales.

John Jilbert recently opened up the new sales and repair shop on Brookton Road where the old Moose Lodge used to be.

The shop sells brand new restaurant appliances as well as used ones that were refurbished.  They also make repairs.

Jilbert says people say the fact that he is local is very convenient.

"A lot of times, people run to Green Bay or lower Michigan to buy products, or Minneapolis, and I thought, a lot of times, they buy things out of catalogs, but they really like to see what they're buying," said Jilbert.  "So if they can see what they buy, they probably feel better about it."

Jilbert sold his dairy business to Country Fresh Foods.
