Every night, while the City sleeps, restaurants, grocers, caterers, hotels and other food-related businesses get their finest fruit and vegetables from nearly two dozen independent merchants right here in San Francisco at The SF Market. Conventional and organic. Ordinary and specialty. We have it all, and have been the Bay Area’s premier source for exceptional produce for over 150 years!
As a critical outlet for California farmers, and a pillar of the Bay Area’s food economy for decades, many of our multi-generational merchants serve the same companies their parents and grandparents served. Our merchants currently support over 500 jobs at The Market, and thousands more at their customers establishments. Since 2013, The SF Market has been a nonprofit social enterprise. With over 485,000 sq. ft. of food-focused warehouse and logistics space in San Francisco’s Bayview Hunters Point neighborhood, our economic impact is significant. Our award-winning Food Recovery Program, has redirected over 10 million pounds of quality produce to food-insecure Bay Area residents – fresh food that otherwise would have headed to the landfill.

CURRENT HIGHLIGHTS
On October 24th we celebrated our 10 Millionth Pound of produce recovered and donated by The SF Market’s award-winning Food Recovery Program! We were joined at Earl’s Organic Produce by Mayor Daniel Lurie, Senator Scott Wiener, SF Market leaders, merchants, nonprofit partners and dedicated supporters from the State of California and City of San Francisco.
As the largest single source of recovered food in San Francisco, our Food Recovery Program sets a national standard that exemplifies efficiency, sustainability, and the power of public-private partnership to uplift lives and strengthen local resilience. We thank the dedicated leaders who make this work possible, including SF Market Merchants and nonprofit community partners.
