Hanson’s Market – San Juan Capistrano

Natural and organic food lovers have much to celebrate with the recent opening of Hanson’s Market in San Juan Capistrano. Located on Del Obispo Street in the former location of Farm to Market (next to Armstrong’s Nursery), Hanson’s second store features 17,500 square feet of healthy food options, which is nearly four times larger than its original San Clemente store. With a vibrant, reformatted interior, the new location includes an integrated pharmacy, a large deli, coffee bar, and an indoor/outdoor seating area, among other amenities.

San Clemente resident and owner Ron Castruita has been working in the food and drug industry for more than three decades. His vision is for the store to evolve around the family community, noting the area’s growing elderly population. Hanson’s Market plans to connect with schools and churches, extending discounts to teachers, coaches, and administrators in town. With his strong focus on the local community, Castruita encourages customers to share their preferences with him on what brands and items they would like Hanson’s to carry. “We’re flexible and nimble, and we’re willing to build the assortment around the customer,” he says.

A highlight of the new San Juan Capistrano store is the expanded deli area, which features delicious Boar’s Head products, grab-and-go items such as rotisserie chicken and ribs, a soup and salad bar, freshly prepared sushi, a sandwich bar that offers organic and gluten-free options, and a coffee bar providing Kombucha on tap along with other teas, juices, and smoothies. Breakfast items will also be available in the near future.

With its two locations and a third store set to open soon in San Diego’s Little Italy, Hanson’s Market continues to provide customers with an exceptional retail experience when it comes to buying natural foods. As Castruita aptly states, “It’s really a family market at the end of the day.”
