SF Flower Market preps for ‘next phase’

The San Francisco Flower Market is spending its final months in its longtime home as it prepares to move to a smaller space — with fewer vendors — elsewhere in The City.

Jeanne Boes, the SF Flower Market’s general manager and chief operating officer, told The Examiner that the 100-year-old institution was initially slated to return to the SoMa neighborhood after developer Kilroy Realty Group turned the land into a mixed-use development. But she said market organizers realized that changes coming to the neighborhood would challenge their operations.

Willy Neve, one of the market’s oldest florists, said he started working with flowers when the market called the intersection of Fifth and Howard streets home. Neve lauded the market’s longtime location for its accessibility, as it is close to the Bay Bridge, Interstate 280 and Highway 101. The market’s easy connections to San Francisco International Airport allows vendors to supply flowers from around the world.

Neve said the new site’s layout would bring the market’s members “all together, not spread out like we are now.” San Francisco saw big drop in property crimes in 2023, new data shows Even as shoplifting became a hot-button topic, the rate of larceny — the kind of crime that includes shoplifting — dropped nearly 11% year-over-year in 2023

“It’s just a part of history, that we’re gonna leave that legacy behind here,” Dueñas said. “Everybody’s ready for a new era. Everything evolves in life. We’re ready for that.”
