Location, Location, Location
Last week, after we made the decision to jump head first into the local food distribution / wash and chop business, we immediately turned our attention to potential locations. Curiously, Jes met Mike from Organic Food Incubator at a conference earlier in the week, and by Thursday morning we were on a tour.
Organic Food Incubator is an amazing space run by the inspiring entrepreneurs who founded BAO Fresh Kombucha. Any food start-up would be lucky to share a home with Mike, Mike, Peter, and the rest of their crew as they take over the NYC healthy beverage market with their delicious products.
Right now, we are trying to figure out if this space will meet our needs. No matter what, this is an amazing opportunity for any food entrepreneur. Please forward the Organic Food Incubator’s information to anyone who is starting a food business in NY - especially those who need certified organic space.
Below is a description of the Incubator along with BAO’s twitter info.
“Organic Food Incubator is a newly renovated, well-lighted, clean and spacious commercial kitchen space in Long Island City has been configured as New York City’s only Organic Food Incubator™ (OFI). The facility is available to rent for organic and non-organic food and drink companies who are in need of access to a NYS Department Agriculture and Markets commercially licensed, USDA organic and kosher certified kitchen to help grow their business.”
