Establishing a Shared-Use Commercial Kitchen is our Entrepreneurial Training Program that details the planning, design and budgetary considerations for developing, sharing, and using an FDA approved, multi-tenant commercial kitchen.

The Shared-Use Commercial Kitchen Entrepreneurial Training Course covers the necessary requirements to establish a successful FDA-approved kitchen.

This class is for individuals, government or community leaders, farmers, and/or producers who want to create a commercial kitchen - and covers everything from laws, to safety standards, to equipment, to budgeting, to funding, to creating revenue streams by partnering/selling to others who wish to rent or use your kitchen. 

In addition to the base curriculum, we'll also discuss topics relevant to your area:

  • outreach to farmers and kitchen end-users

  • public-private business models and how to approach public entities as an entrepreneur

  • market research and determining the best location and size for your shared-use commercial kitchen

  • examples of five revenue streams from different points in the kitchen

  • pricing strategies and fundraising

  • an introduction to specific health and licensing laws in your region

This is an individually-customized course that will be held over 3 conference calls. 

This is a highly intensive class.  When we're done, you will leave with the tools and knowledge to get right to work. 

CLASS DATES:  YOU set the schedule!

TIMES & LOCATIONS:  Directly determined by YOU!

REGISTRATION:  You must register by filling out the form and submitting your payment through our secure website. 

COST:  $350

I found you through the Sustainable Agriculture group on LinkedIn, and I am very, very interested in this class, but I live in the southeast. Would you ever consider offering this over a long weekend so out-of-towners could participate? 
 
Thanks for the work you're doing!
