    Jay Dolata - Owner, Elroy's Fine Foods

    Jay Dolata joins the podcast to talk about his journey and how lessons he inadvertently learned through athletics have served him along the way.

    When owners Chloé and Jay Dolata first envisioned what Elroy’s Fine Foods would become, they wanted to build a market that was the whole package: A beautiful store that not only sold incredible foods, but also prioritized environmental and social responsibility, all while serving as a vibrant community market and hangout. And boy, did they deliver. Elroy’s Fine Foods is not just a market—it’s an experience.
