Cook-Up

COOK-UP nourishes skilled food entreprenures, primarily entrepreneurs from marginalized communities, to grow thriving businesses that can have a transformative impact on our community by building an more inclusive economic landscape. Women who want to build a business doing what they love, particularly low-income and women of color, face a disproportionally higher risk and barriers to market entry. COOK-UP is our attempt at building equity in business ownership for these entrepreneurs by providing affordable access to commercial kitchen space, entrepreneurship coaching, access to professional business services, and market opportunities.
