After years of community planning, organizing, fundraising and build-out, Suncoast Market Co-op will celebrate the grand opening of its full-service, community-owned grocery store with a Grand Opening Celebration and Ribbon Cutting! Created by and for South County residents, Suncoast Market Co-op is a community-owned grocery store. They are opening with a “hybrid” store model, intentionally combining natural, organic, local, and specialty foods with mainstream, value-priced staples and culturally specific products from many traditions. SunCoast will also offer great fresh produce, bulk, bakery, deli grab and go items, a hot food bar and salad bar. The festivities will run from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.; speakers and ribbon cutting are scheduled for 9-9:30 a.m. Grand Opening Celebration highlights include: - Guest speakers, including County of San Diego Supervisor Paloma Aguirre and City of Imperial Beach Mayor Pro Tem, Jack Fisher - Giveaways - Delicious food samples - Music by radio personality and DJ Xavier “The X-Man®” Unlike conventional grocery stores, co-ops are owned by the community they serve. Members have a voice in how the store operates, profits are reinvested locally, and decisions are guided by shared values rather than distant shareholders. Food co-ops often prioritize local farmers and producers, fair wages and ethical sourcing, environmental responsibility, inclusive access to healthy food, democratic ownership, and transparency. Suncoast Market Co-op is open to everyone to shop, and community members may choose to become member-owners to help shape the co-op’s future. SunCoast Market on Instagram
