The Genesee Valley Regional Market has been operated since 1951 by the Genesee Valley Regional Market Authority (GVRMA) as a regional food distribution center for nine counties in central and western New York. While at one time it had a "farmer's market" character, in recent years the food operations are more commercial production and distribution operations with over 150 site tenants. There is still some retail character, including several restaurants, but there are now a wide variety of non-food commercial operations in "the Market" as well.

Includes the following RocWiki listed entities:


• Acadia Canna & Kratom
  

• ARK Glass & Glazing

The GVRMA was founded to create a regional distribution center and market to support agricultural suppliers in a nine county area. GVRMA was granted a 120+ acres of land for its use. Over the years the authority began leasing land and buildings on the parcel and using the proceeds to fund the activities of the authority.

What can be very surprising is that some of GVRMA's tenants include Chase Bank, Holiday Inn, Office Depot, Best Western, Verizon, RG&E, etc. See their Land Lease page to find that the following commercial/retail strips are all income producing properties of the authority:

• from 137 to 175 Clay Road,
  

• from 1455 to 1663 East Henrietta Road,
  

• from 800 to 1000 Jefferson Road (both sides), and
  

• from 35 to 218 Mushroom Blvd (both sides)
