Starting Your Business

Starting Your Business
It is never too early in your business development process to contact us. We have over ten years experience in helping entrepreneurs through the maze of starting a food business. Our business incubation process is based upon the belief that there is more to starting a food business than simply handing over your formula to a commercial co-packer and picking up finished product a week later.

Our process begins with an hour to hour and a half consultation meeting which includes a tour of the facility, guidance on product and process development, packaging and label development, risk management, marketing and roll-out strategies. At the end, you will have an approximate timetable and budget for your business start-up as well as referrals to other resource providers. The $50 fee for this session can be applied to the $100 membership charge within one year. To schedule a meeeting e-mail us or call 802-849-2000.
"The 4 P's of Starting a Food Business, .pdf gives information about some of the basic points of food entrepreneurship.
