AEC Market – Nourishing Hamburg, One Local Product at a Time
Nestled in the heart of downtown Hamburg, AEC Market is more than just a place to shop—it’s a place for community, wellness, and local entrepreneurship. Located at 332 State Street, this charming market has quickly become a beloved destination for community members seeking fresh, wholesome, and locally sourced products.
AEC Market operates under a simple but powerful motto: “Eat Better, Feel Better.” This philosophy drives every aspect of their business. The team at AEC believes that the quality of food we consume directly impacts our health and well-being. That’s why they are committed to offering items free from artificial ingredients and fillers, focusing instead on natural, nutrient-rich options that support a healthy lifestyle.
The story behind AEC Market is as heartfelt as its mission. Founded by Alyssa, a passionate mother of three, the name “AEC” represents her children—Addalynn, Eli, and Calvin. Alyssa’s journey began with a desire to provide her family with the best possible food, leading her to spend countless hours researching ingredients and their effects on health. Frustrated by the need to travel far and wide to find trustworthy products, she envisioned a one-stop shop for food you can trust. With the support of her husband and the collaboration of local farmers and small businesses who shared her values, AEC Market was born.
Growing up on a self-sustaining farm, Alyssa’s deep-rooted passion for agriculture, food, family, and faith became the backbone of the business. These values continue to shape the market’s operations and customer relationships. AEC Market is committed to working hard and giving their best to ensure families have access to high-quality, honest food. Customers can expect a delightful array of fresh baked goods made with love and care, dairy products sourced from nearby farms, in-season produce that reflects the bounty of Pennsylvania’s agricultural heritage, and beautiful flowers and seasonal items perfect for gifts or home décor. Whether you’re picking up ingredients for dinner or browsing for a thoughtful gift, AEC Market offers a shopping experience that feels personal, intentional, and community driven.
AEC Market’s success in Hamburg has paved the way for growth. A second location in Fogelsville opened on September 6th, 2025, at 2374 Seipstown Rd, extending their reach and impact. This expansion reflects the growing demand for high-quality, locally sourced products and the trust AEC has built with its customers.
Operating hours at the Hamburg location are Monday from 10 AM to 7 PM, Tuesday to Friday from 10 AM to 5:30 PM, Saturday from 8 AM to 3 PM, and Sunday from 11 AM to 2 PM. Whether you’re a longtime resident or just passing through, AEC Market invites you to stop by, explore their offerings, and experience the warmth of a business that truly cares about its community.
