The South of Market Community

Originally formed in 1992, the South of Market Business Association (SOMBA) is a non-profit professional organization governed by its Board of Directors and bylaws.
 

SOMBA member businesses are tightly integrated into the community; many owners and employees live and work in the area. On a day-to-day basis, SOMBA businesses are resources for each other as they serve the unique populations that reside and work in the South of Market. Members and partner organizations work together to create a more vibrant, connected and successful business environment.

​

SOMBA serves as a resource to:

​

• Advocate for a more vibrant community

• Attract more customers to the neighborhood

• Support and strengthen SoMa businesses

• Promote SoMa businesses doing business with each other

​

At SOMBA we are deeply involved in our community and, along with our partners in the district, exist to empower all SOMA's communities  - residents, businesses and visitors alike.

​

The following represent some of the community organizations who we work with in concert to uplift our community:

​

SOMCAN (South of Market Community Action Network)  •  United Playaz

Central Market CBD  •  SOMA West CBD  •  SOMA Pilipinas  •  SFCDMA

​

We are a proud supporter of many events within this rich and vibrant district. On Sunday, August 21, 2022 we had 3 tables at Sunday Streets SOMA. Check out our Recent Events section to view photos! For upcoming SOMA events, visit our Community Events section.
