About San Francisco Flower Market

For Floral Wholesalers

Also known as the San Francisco Flower Mart, we have over 60 vendors, purveyors of cut flowers, potted plants, blooming plants, and floral supplies. We have evolved from being a “growers” market to being a marketplace for floral wholesalers. Product, which at one time was only from the immediate Bay Area, now comes from the far reaches of the world. SFFM is one of only five grower-owned wholesale flower markets in the U.S. We are the one-stop floral source for Northern California. Variety is what sets us apart from all others.

History

With beginnings paralleling the growth and development of the San Francisco Bay Area, the origins of the San Francisco Flower Mart go back to the late 1800s when the land was plentiful. Local flower growers could bring their products to Lotta’s Fountain in downtown San Francisco three days a week, selling their products to local flower shops. A need for a centrally located market bringing together the three ethnically diverse groups of flower growers was fulfilled with the opening of a market located at 5th and Howard Streets in 1924. As flower growers expanded production areas outside of the Bay Area and as products from other parts of the United States came in, the need for a larger more modern permanent facility led to the design and construction of our current market at Sixth and Brannan Streets in the South of Market area of San Francisco. The grand opening of the San Francisco Flower Terminal in September 1956 marked the establishment of an industry icon. Today, officially known as the San Francisco Flower Mart, we now have over 60 vendors, purveyors of cut flowers, potted plants, blooming plants, and floral supplies. We have evolved from being a “growers” market to being a marketplace for floral wholesalers. Product, which at one time was only from the immediate Bay Area, now comes from the far reaches of the world.
