Grocery Stores work in San Francisco
San Francisco shoppers search for groceries constantly, and the searches split by neighbourhood. People in the Sunset look for produce markets and Asian groceries close to home. People in the Mission search for butcher counters and delis. People in the Marina and Pacific Heights search for specialty and organic shops. The city is dense, so a store two miles away is often not the store somebody picks. Chain supermarkets and independents both compete for the same local searches, and the smaller shops win when their pages name the streets, the products and the neighbourhoods they serve. Demand is steady all year because everybody eats, and it spikes around holidays and produce seasons.
