The Marina Merchants Association is committed to enhance business in the Marina - Cow Hollow areas as well as being involved in community matters that affect its Members.

The Marina District is home to Crissy Field, the Exploratorium, Fort Mason, the Marina Green, and The Palace of Fine Arts. With hundreds of shops and specialty boutiques, restaurants ranging from haute cuisine to some of the best neighborhood “joints” around, and dozens of hotels and inns - the Marina provides you with the perfect San Francisco experience just steps away from the Bay!

We are the only Neighborhood Association representing the Marina that is a member of the San Francisco Convention & Visitors Bureau (SFCVB) - promoting the Marina as a tourist destination. We are also Members of the San Francisco Council of District Merchants (SFCDMA). As the only Association in the Marina recognized by the SFCDMA, we have citywide representation on matters that affect small businesses, including the support of the Small Business Network, Small Business Advocates and the Small Business Commission. Our SFCDMA Membership also provides numerous benefits to our Members, from special rates on insurance coverage to discounts on payroll services.

The volunteer Officers of our Board are ready to face the challenges of this new year. Our pledge to you is that we will continue to build the Marina Merchants Association in a positive, professional, and inclusive manner, with an eye to the future and development of all our businesses here in the best place on earth - The Marina. Come join us and get involved in your future!
