ADVOCATING FOR THE BAYVIEW BUSINESS COMMUNITY

The Bayview Merchants Association (BMA) was founded in 1925, when the neighborhood was known to locals as “Butchertown” because of the high density of slaughterhouses in the area. The population was small, but a group of committed business people came together in an effort to promote the merchants to the rest of San Francisco and to advocate for Bayview businesses to local government.
100 years later, the Bayview Merchants Association continues to be a driving force behind economic development in the Bayview. Our Mission is to create a vibrant, safe and economically sustainable community by helping ALL Bayview businesses succeed.
