Greenberg Turkey Business Booming

TYLER — The economy doesn’t seem to be affecting people’s plans for a big Thanksgiving feast. Sam Greenberg with Greenberg Smoked Turkeys in Tyler says business is booming this year. Initially, he expected to sell about 200,000 birds. But now he says, “If Thanksgiving is any indication, that won’t be enough this year. I have never seen anything like our demand this year — and it looks like the consumer is back.” Most of Greenberg’s sales are done online, but the company has started providing turkeys through Central Market Stores.
