At Biggers Market, our roots run deep — all the way back to the 1920s, when Sven’s grandfather and his brothers founded a family produce business in Charlotte, North Carolina. They called it "Biggers Brothers", and together they built a reputation for delivering farm-fresh fruits and vegetables across the Southeast. Their legacy helped feed generations, and their passion for quality, local food laid the foundation for everything we do today.

Nearly a century later, Sven launched his own food market in 2010 to be called "Biggers Market", with a simple mission: to bring that same sense of community, local foods, and unforgettable experience to Wilmington. What started as a small roadside stand has grown into a beloved local destination with two lively locations — one on Market Street and another on Carolina Beach Road.

So where did the name come from? Biggers is Sven’s mother’s maiden name, and we thought it was the perfect way to honor the family history while making our little market feel... well, BIGGER.

Today, Biggers Market is more than just a place to grab produce. It’s a gathering spot, a neighborhood hangout, and a celebration of everything local. From seasonal favorites and homemade meals to craft beverages and live music, we’re all about creating good vibes and great food — all while supporting Carolina farmers and makers.

Come visit us at either of our Wilmington locations, or let us bring the market to you with our Biggers BOX — a weekly, customizable subscription box filled with hand-selected, local produce and any of your other favorites from the market, delivered straight to your door.
