LOOK @ THE NEW SAN FRANCISCO FLOWER MART

11 Feb

 

180316 SFFM We are so excited about this news!  Our flower market needed a major upgrade.  We are located in the heart of SOMA, the heart of hipsterville, the center of all that is changing in our City.  So the San Francisco Flower Mart is going to change right along with our City!  We have partnered with Kilroy Realty to build a new San Francisco Flower Mart, at our current location at 6th & Brannan St.
The new San Francisco Flower Mart will include a state-of-the-art, 115,000-square-foot warehouse large enough to accommodate all of your favorite vendors of the flower market, with new amenities and features. The warehouse will be located on the groundfloor, of the proposed 6th & Brannan St. project, and contain 24-foot high ceilings and strategically placed skylights to provide natural light. The warehouse will be both functional and inviting – the high ceilings will provide enough space for a mezzanine that can accommodate office space for the wholesale flower vendors. New, energy and space-efficient refrigeration space will be provided adjacent to the individual vendor stalls. The specific details of the new facility will be developed by Kilroy Realty Corporation and the San Francisco Flower Mart over the next several months alongside a committee of Flower Mart tenants to ensure that the new market works for businesses and customers alike.

So stay tuned, we’re not going anywhere!180316 SFFM Loading
