A more than 100-year-old local business devastated by fire in 2022 is rebuilt and preparing to settle-in to their brand new store.

Mazzaferro's Meats and Deli had operated a remote location on Railroad Street as a brand new store was constructed. The late April fire almost 18 months ago destroyed their location in Ridge Mills, but welcomed the public and dignitaries for a ribbon cutting ceremony on Monday morning.

The business dates all the way back to 1915 and is ready to serve Rome and the surrounding areas for another hundred years.

The new store - at the old location - is larger and comes with the latest amenities and comforts. It's marks the end of a pledge made by Brian Mazzaferro to rebuild and continue serving Rome.

The Mazzaferro's on Railroad Street closed on Sunday, but officials say the market on the corner of Mill and Railroad is only closing temporarily and will remain open in the future.
