POC Food & Wine Festival presented by Make it Mariko, is the newest food & wine festival to hit the scene. After 7 years of successful festival production, strategic economic development, and community outreach through UNDISCOVERED SF Filipino Creative Market, Make it Mariko is excited to be producing their own food festival concept focused on diversifying the food & beverage industry and uplifting local creatives & entrepreneurs of color.
Over the past 7 years, in partnership with key nonprofits like Kultivate Labs, Make it Mariko has helped bring over $1 million in economic development activity to SOMA Pilipinas Filipino Cultural Heritage District directly into the pockets of small businesses, entrepreneurs, and performing artists.
