Kin's Farm Market is a Canadian-owned chain of retail produce outlets. As of 2019, the company operates 29 stores across British Columbia.[1] The stores sell fresh produce from local farms,[2] as well as imported fruit and vegetables from around the world.[3]

History

Kin's Farm Market was founded in 1983 by Kin Wah and Kin Hun Leung,[4] who were at the time recent graduates of Vancouver Community College,[5][6] at an eight-foot table at the Granville Island market in Vancouver, British Columbia.[7] Four years later, they opened their first retail location at Blundell Centre in Richmond, British Columbia, naming it Kin's Farm Market. Three years later, they opened a second store. By 2001, Kin's had opened a total of twelve stores, and by 2012 they had opened close to thirty.[8]

Kin's Farm Market organize and participate in community events, including the Green Fighter program,[9][10][11] the Dirty Apron Team,[12] and the BC Blueberry Festival.[13] The company has also raised funds for the David Suzuki Foundation[14] and medical research.[15][16]

In 2013, The Georgia Straight magazine named Kin's Farm Market the best produce store in the British Columbia lower mainland area, and the market was given a Best of Vancouver Readers' Choice Award.[17]
