ABOUT US
Our mission is to help manufacturers thrive, innovate, and create good jobs, for a more diverse and sustainable Bay Area.
SFMade is a 501(C)3 Nonprofit Organization Supporting Local Manufacturers Since 2010
For over a decade, SFMade has been breaking down barriers to success by providing vital resources, expertise, and support to makers who have historically lacked access to traditional funding and business development opportunities.
Our commitment to economic justice ensures that Bay Area’s manufacturing sector reflects and uplifts our diverse community.
Our network has over 800 local manufacturers in San Francisco, San Jose, and the East Bay sustaining more than 10,000 jobs.
