The Larkspur Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce

Mollie Stone's as our July Business of the Month!  

Mollie Stone's - Happy 40th Anniversary!

Founded in 1986, Mollie Stone's Markets is a family-owned grocer with 8 locations throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, with 2 locations in Marin. Our first market opened in Sausalito, and our fourth market opened in Greenbrae. We are committed to providing the highest quality products and exceptional customer service, with a focus on fresh, local, and organic offerings. We are also deeply involved in the communities we serve, supporting local organizations and initiatives.

We are proud to announce our 40th Anniversary, marking four decades as a family-owned, independent grocer. Since opening its doors in 1986, Mollie Stone’s has grown to become one of the Bay Area’s largest independent grocery operators — while staying true to our founding mission: “Making a difference in people’s lives through food.”

From our earliest days as one of Northern California’s largest natural foods markets, Mollie Stone’s has evolved into a beloved Bay Area institution while maintaining its core values of integrity, passion, teamwork, and community support.

From the beginning, we have emphasized people first — not just customers, but employees. We offer industry-leading wages, paid time off, health benefits, pension plans, and career training opportunities for our workforce. These partnerships reflect a commitment to being an employer of choice and helping build career pathways for team members throughout our Bay Area markets.

Mollie Stone’s believes a grocery store should be more than a place to shop — it should be a pillar of the community. From supporting local farmers, artisans, and Bay Area producers to contributing to nonprofit organizations, hospitals, schools, and neighborhood initiatives, we have consistently invested in the communities we serve. Mollie Stone’s has helped generate thousands of local jobs, partnered with regional food banks and charitable programs, and provided meaningful career opportunities for team members across our markets. Whether through local sourcing, charitable giving, or long-standing relationships with customers and employees, Mollie Stone’s has built our legacy not just on retail success, but on strengthening the fabric of the neighborhoods we call home.

“When we opened our first store in 1986, our goal wasn’t to be the biggest — it was to be the best grocer we could be,” said Mike Stone, Founder and CEO of Mollie Stone’s Markets. “Forty years later, that commitment to service, quality, and community still guides everything we do. I’m incredibly proud of our employees, many of whom have built their careers with us, and deeply grateful to the customers and communities who have supported us for generations. This anniversary belongs to them as much as it does to us.”

As Mollie Stone’s looks ahead to the next 40 years, we remain committed to the same principles that guided our founding — supporting local producers, creating meaningful careers for employees, and delivering a neighborhood grocery experience rooted in quality, service, and community connection. We were so pleased to kick off our Anniversary celebrations in Marin at the celebrated Bon Air Shopping Center in Greenbrae. It was a special event, and we look forward to continuing the celebrations throughout the year as Mollie Stone’s marks this milestone with our customers, suppliers, and communities who helped build it.
