About Our Market
Founded in 2003 by a group of visionaries who first had the original idea of bringing a European-style market to the City of Kenosha, Kenosha Common Markets, Inc. is pleased to operate such markets in Kenosha, Downtown Racine and Pleasant Prairie.
Our markets enhance the quality of life in these communities (and beyond) by connecting regional produce, meat and cheese producers; creators of ready-to-eat as well as processed foods and artisans of all kinds with consumers.
Following our longtime mission, we remain committed to supporting local small businesses by connecting them with resources and opportunities that help them launch, grow and thrive. This includes providing a forum to sell their products at Kenosha HarborMarket and Racine HarborMarket, and, for food producers, a means of preparing them at Kenosha Incubator Community Kitchen® (the K.I.C.K.) which opened in spring 2021.
