We are a shared use commercial kitchen; helping food entrepreneurs start and grow their businesses.
Project Description
Thank you to Caress & IFund Women of Color for supporting and encouraging our work.
Alamo Kitchens is the space where food entrepreneurs come to cook!
One of the greatest inhibitors of new and growing food businesses is the cost of building and maintaining a commercial kitchen space. Without a commercial kitchen, most food businesses can't get started or grow. Alamo Kitchens was created to reduce this barrier to entry by providing a licensed commercial kitchen for food & beverage entrepreneurs.
Alamo Kitchens was born out of a real and growing need in our community.
Help us raise funds to expand capacity and support more food entrepreneurs.
Your support of this campaign will allow us to
create a kitchen studio
&
develop an online catering platform
These two projects allow clients to expand their customer base and reach. With the kitchen studio, clients will be able to create how-to videos, live stream classes and safely demo for people watching them cook in the kitchen. The catering platform will allow Alamo Kitchens to showcase the talented chefs cooking in the kitchen and be a vehicle for those customers needing to order food for 4 or 400 to have varied food options to chose from and do so while supporting small businesses.
Thank you for supporting Alamo Kitchens and helping us achieve our vision by purchasing one of our rewards or donating any amount that you can.
With your help, we will make an even greater impact.
