Acquired by BISON in September 2025, Bernal Plaza is a 139,559 square foot neighborhood shopping center shadow-anchored by a high-performing Lucky Supermarket (Save Mart Companies), a 20-plus year tenant attracting more than 700,000 annual visitors. Additional national tenants include Ross Dress for Less, Staples, McDonald’s, Starbucks, Shell, and a Tesla Charging Station.
Positioned in the affluent South Silicon Valley submarket at the confluence of U.S. 101 and Highway 85, Bernal Plaza benefits from exceptional visibility along Bernal Road and San Ignacio Avenue, with combined traffic counts exceeding 21,000 vehicles per day. The center features eight ingress/egress points and a generous 6:1,000 SF parking ratio. Annual average household incomes in the surrounding trade area approach $200,000.
BISON plans significant capital improvements including exterior upgrades, painting, signage enhancements, landscaping upgrades, patio furniture, and full rebranding, all designed to establish Bernal Plaza as the dominant grocery and necessity retail center in the trade area. The surrounding South San Jose neighborhoods are densely populated with limited new retail supply.
