The bakery, which started in the Mission District, gained popularity during the pandemic by selling sourdough loaves through Instagram. Rize Up's success comes from its unique takes on sourdough, incorporating flavors like ube, black sesame, and more. Founder Azikiwee Anderson aims to create a community space in SoMa, offering a place for people to connect over coffee and pastries.
