About Upper Noe Merchants
Resources for Merchants

Upper Noe Valley runs from Cesar Chavez to the end of Church Street. Neighborhood merchants play a vital role in making Upper Noe one of the most family friendly areas in SF.

ABOUT UPPER NOE MERCHANTS

Upper Noe Merchants is bridge between residents and merchants and a means for the two to bond together around the social political issues that affect the Upper Noe neighborhood.

The Upper Noe Merchants committee strives to represent, promote and protect the interests of local businesses and the commercial corridor. We seek to improve communication and cooperation among local merchants before city agencies.

The merchant group works within the framework of Upper Noe Neighbors. This arrangement addresses concerns that busy merchants might have about their availability to dedicate time and energy to the group and their ability to keep notified of and track issues. Merchants have the advantage of communication, outreach and community promotion through Upper Noe Neighbors.
