Prime Produce Guild Hall, also known as Prime Produce Apprentice Cooperative and Prime Produce, is a community co-working organization and event space based in New York City.[1][2][3]

Prime Produce consists of two organizational bodies. One is an incorporated nonprofit that runs the co-working collective, cybernetics library, and community space in the building.[4][5] The second is a cooperative that manages their building located at 424 West 54 Street.[6]

Co-founded by Jerone Hsu, Prime Produce is listed in the Dramatists Guild directory describing itself as "support[ing] entrepreneurs, educators, and artists who share values of service and hospitality" by offering event and practice spaces.[7][8] Prime Produce has hosted art exhibitions, screenings, staged readings, business networking events involving Pennsylvania's Lafayette College, and career panels for Cornell University.[3][9][2][10] Since 2023, Prime Produce has hosted meetings and events presented by the local Wikipedia chapter, Wikimedia New York City.[1]

In 2022, Jamaican eatery Cafe 424 opened for business in the cafe space on the first floor of Prime Produce serving Jamaican cuisine.[11]
