Online grocer Farmstead has opened up the waitlist for its Miami service launch, which is scheduled to begin later this quarter. This is Farmstead’s fifth market; the grocer already serves or will soon begin serving San Francisco, Charlotte, and Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, and Nashville, Tennessee.
"Miami is excited to see yet another company realize and take advantage of the opportunities that our City presents,” said Mayor Francis Suarez, in a statement. “We welcome anyone who wants to bring their ideas and their talents to the ‘3-0-5,’ especially a company like Farmstead that is so committed to the community they serve."
“There are many reasons why Miami is a great fit for Farmstead,” said Michael A. Finney, president and CEO of the Miami-Dade Beacon Council, which is working closely with Farmstead to ensure their expansion to Miami is successful. “A network of local farmers and food producers offer a variety of high-quality local goods. Expertise in cold chain logistics ensures a deep bench of diverse talent and established partners, while our vibrant tech ecosystem supports Farmstead’s continued innovation and growth.”
