One of the goals of Hunters View Phase III is to bring food retail to the Hunters View community and support the economic empowerment of Hunters View and HOPE SF residents. That’s why the John Stewart Company, Devine & Gong, and Ridge Point — in partnership with HOPE SF — is inviting applications for a food business operator to occupy and operate a commercial kitchen and food retail space that will be located in Block 17 of Hunters View Phase III.

We are looking for applicants who are interested and able to operate a high-quality food retail space that will provide delicious, affordable, and healthy food for the families that live in and work at Hunters View and in the surrounding neighborhoods. A commitment to supporting Hunters View residents through hiring and training programs is also required, particularly if the applicant is not a current HOPE SF resident.

Hunters View residents, other current HOPE SF residents, and residents of Bayview-Hunters Point and District 10 are strongly encouraged to apply. Mentorship (including support with responding to this RFP) is available to applicants who have less experience operating a Food Business. For more details, please reach out to cetzel@jsco.net.

The Request for Proposals and application materials can be downloaded here. Applications are due via email on November 30, 2022 at 5:00 PM. For questions, please reach out to the team at cetzel@jsco.net.
