Business Upgrades: Oak Hill Market

The soaring costs of electricity has many small businesses looking for ways to immediately cut costs.

Meet Sami Hatter, the manager of Oak Hill Market. Nestled in the heart of San Francisco's Lower Haight neighborhood, Oak Hill Market has been proudly family-owned and operated for more than two decades.

Sami saw an opportunity to cut costs by taking advantage of BayREN Business. The Program provided incentives to cover the entire project cost of $10,000. And "the whole process was extremely easy.”

“The lighting in the store is much better and brighter, the refrigerator makes less noise, and the whole process was extremely easy!" said Hatter. Oak Hill Market is on its way to saving an estimated $5,000 per year on its electricity bill.
