October is Italian Heritage Month. 7 Action News Reporter Tiarra Braddock takes us inside a family-owned grocery store with Italian roots that’s been serving Macomb County for decades. The owners of Vince and Joe’s Gourmet Markets are celebrating 40 years in business. The business has been in the Vitale family for three generations.

“I’m really proud and really happy to be able to accomplish this,” said Mimma Vitale. In 1983, Mimma Vitale opened the first Vince and Joe’s Market with her husband Vince, brother-in-law Joe, and his wife Maria. 40 years later, the Vitales now have two grocery stores. One of the stores is in Clinton Township and the other one is in Shelby Township.
