Sunset Mercantile

WE STRIVE TO: Create events in which budding entrepreneurs, artisans, small business owners, artists and local nonprofits can showcase their talents and causes Incubate and help cultivate small business ideas and dreams of local community members. Support the local brick-and -mortars in developing creative ways to increase their foot traffic and tie them into the events. Design events that are family-friendly and engaging for all ages HOW IT ALL BEGAN Sunset Mercantile was founded in 2014 by two local Sunset mamas, Angie Petitt and Laura Peschke-Zingler. They were fueled by an awareness of the need for a pop-up venue to support the blossoming business ideas of local community members, as well as lend support to already-established local businesses while creating more unique and family-friendly events in the western side of our City. Today, Sunset Mercantile is led by Angie Pettit, and our fun, mostly outdoor events take place in the Sunset District and throughout San Francisco, attracting over 200,000 attendees per year. From cultural celebrations like Lunar New Year and Dia de los Muertos, to our weekly Farmer’s Market, the original vision of a festive pop-up open-air metropolis has evolved into a much-beloved local destination in which we invite one and all to Come Eat, Drink, Shop, Play, Connect, and BE LOCAL!
