Community Support Builds SunCoast Market

Residents of Imperial Beach and surrounding communities organized in 2016 to address the lack of healthy food and grocery options. We’ve been actively seeking community input to open a store tailored to our community needs. After years of building support, networking with local leaders, feasibility studies, seeking guidance from industry experts, and planning and budgeting, we are now raising the funds needed for store equipment, construction, inventory, and more. We’re closer than ever to making this happen and we need your help.

Building a grocery store is expensive!

Our projected costs are over $4M and equipment costs consume a significant portion — nearly $750,000. With items costing between $158 and $78,000, your donation of $100, $500, $1000, or an amount of your choice can make all the difference. Scroll down to view items we will be purchasing and consider donating to our equipment fund. All funds are pooled into a dedicated fund being used to purchase equipment for SunCoast Market Co-op. Prices shown reflect the retail price for necessary equipment. SunCoast plans to purchase discounted or used equipment when possible.

With your support this happens faster!

Here’s how you can help:

    1. Review our equipment needs list below.
    2. Determine a donation amount that works for you.
    3. Use the green button above to donate that amount toward our equipment budget.
    4. Prepare to shop at SunCoast Market Co-op in 2024!

Donations of all sizes are welcome!
All donations made through this campaign are pooled into our dedicated equipment fund to purchase items like you see on this list below.
