99 Ranch Market will open its new store Aug. 16 at 10544 SE Washington St. in Portland, Oregon. This is the company’s second store in Oregon – its Beaverton location opened in 2017 – and will be the first site in the city.
Portland is home to one of the country’s most vibrant Asian food scenes, making it an ideal community for 99 Ranch Market to open its 65th store nationwide, adding to a growing footprint across 11 states. Located in the Gateway area near Mall 205, the new store is accessible via I-205 and public transit.
“The new Portland store is a wonderful representation of how our brand has evolved from Asian grocery chain to a destination for food and culture,” said Alice Chen, CEO of Tawa Supermarket. “We’re delighted to create a new hub for Portland’s bustling, diverse community.”
Founded in 1984, 99 Ranch Market has long served as a “Gateway to Asia” for shoppers seeking authentic Asian ingredients, live seafood, everyday staples, hard-to-find condiments and trending snacks.
The 35,000-square-foot store includes:
- Market Floor: More than 12,000 SKUs spanning produce, premium meats, live seafood, frozen foods, packaged grocery, snacks, beverages, household items/cookware and the brand’s signature Asian bakery and hot deli.
- In-store services and perks:
- In-house butchering
- Complimentary fish frying and live crab/lobster steaming
- Multilingual staff
- End cap educational tags and recipe inspiration
- In-store sampling
- Self-checkout, members-only promotions and 1 percent back in loyalty points through the 99 Ranch Super Rewards program
- MINISO: The global lifestyle retailer, located inside 99 Ranch, is also celebrating its grand opening with sweepstakes in partnership with the supermarket.
- HK Café (coming soon): Later this year, shoppers can also dine at an authentic Hong Kong-style dim sum café.
Free onsite parking is available, and 99 Ranch Market offers free same-day delivery ($49-plus within a 20-mile radius) and is available through Instacart and Uber Eats.
The Portland store will host a media and influencer preview on Aug. 15, followed by a grand opening celebration on Aug. 16, which features a traditional lion dance and bluefin tuna cutting show, plus exclusive perks and giveaways.
