South East Market Expansion

South East Market is a small grocery store and food hub with a mission to increase access to healthy, affordable, culturally appropriate food through a sustainable and equitable lens. We do this by working first with our priority vendors which are Black, brown, indigenous, people of color, local and women-led businesses and farms. To support our mission we engage with several urban agriculture efforts and provide support to budding businesses.

South East Market Expansion

About this idea

Over the last two years South East Market has proven to be more than a grocery store but a movement! In the midst of COVID Khara DeWit and Alita Kelly opened the sustainable and equitable answer to food injustice for 49507 and beyond. In this time they have outgrown their space and have increased their reach tenfold but they aren’t done yet. With new contracts and opportunities presenting themselves they have the potential to propel several local food businesses and farms through their retail store and food subscription boxes. Their expansion will also include prepared food and expanded delivery options!
