SEATTLE — Community Markets in Seattle’s Madison Valley neighborhood has finally opened.

The opening comes after roughly a decade of delays in the development of the property.

“I’m so excited to welcome PCC Community Markets’ newest neighborhood store to Madison Valley,” said Seattle City Council President Joy Hollingsworth, whose district includes Madison Valley. “As a multi-generational Seattleite, I’m proud to support a local, homegrown business that reflects the values of our community. As a farmer who runs a family-owned farm, I deeply appreciate PCC’s commitment to supporting local agriculture. And as a city official, I recognize PCC not only as a valued employer and economic driver in our region, but as a true community partner, leading on issues from hunger relief advocacy to environmental sustainability.”

The Madison Valley location will offer a full assortment of groceries, including locally grown organic produce, ethically raised meat and seafood, and a wide selection of seasonal products sourced from across the Pacific Northwest.

The deli will include an array of freshly prepared meals, seasonal salads, artisanal sandwiches, hot soups, and convenient grab-and-go options crafted daily.

The Madison Valley location will support local community organizations, partnering with the Jewish Family Service of Seattle, Bailey-Boushay House, FEEST, Downtown Emergency Service Center, The Food Bank @ St. Mary’s, and Black Farmers Collective.

“We are thrilled to welcome PCC Community Markets to Madison Valley as our new neighbors and community partners,” said Holly Cowles, Executive Director of Bailey-Boushay House. “PCC’s grocery donation program provides vital nourishment directly to our outpatient clients, many of whom manage complex medical conditions alongside housing instability and food insecurity. Fresh, organic produce and high-quality food ensure our clients receive the dignified, holistic care they deserve. We are deeply grateful for PCC’s commitment to standing with us to foster health, dignity, and equity in our neighborhood.”

The store is expected to employ approximately 75 employees.

Store Director Nick Novak joined PCC in 2022 and brings more than 25 years of industry experience, including more than 20 years in store leadership. Most recently, he served as Store Director at Greenlake Village PCC.

Assistant Store Director Morgan Simon began his PCC career in 2010 as a dishwasher at the Fremont store and has held a variety of roles across the co-op, including leadership positions at PCC stores in Bellevue and Issaquah.

The Madison Valley location marks PCC’s 17th neighborhood store.
