Other Avenues

Other Avenues is a worker-owned neighborhood grocery store serving the community since 1974. Our history is rooted in the Bay Area’s grassroots food movement from the 1960s and 1970s known as the Food Conspiracy and later as The People's Food System. We employ a non-hierarchical management structure and make consensus-based decisions, empowering each other to uphold our shared value of workplace democracy. We emphasize organic, fairly-traded, vegetarian, sustainable products and support local producers, cooperatives, and small vendors.
