Why Vending Fits South San Francisco, CA

South San Francisco has called itself the "birthplace of biotechnology" since Genentech — the industry's first biotech company — set up here in the 1970s. The city now holds roughly 12 million square feet of biotech and lab space, with AstraZeneca among the other major tenants, and another 3.5 million square feet of lab space is currently under construction, including new life-science buildings going up along Haskins Way.

That concentration of research campuses means a workforce of scientists, lab technicians, and biotech administrative staff spread across dozens of buildings along Highway 101 and out toward the bay at Oyster Point and Terrabay — a market built almost entirely around lab and office breakrooms rather than retail or hospitality foot traffic.
