Purpose of Business

Haddon Kitchen Incubator is a full-service foodservice business incubator providing commercial food preparation facilities and equipment, shared sales and event space, and essential business services to startups. We aim to develop a vibrant local community network of foodservice businesses who can share ideas, pool resources and talent, cross-promote products and services, and build their business in a mutually beneficial manner.

Haddon Kitchen Incubator provides kitchen access on a shared rental basis to foodservice businesses who do not manage their own dedicated food preparation space or have outgrown their existing arrangements. Examples include caterers, food trucks, farmer market and artisan food vendors, wholesalers, and startups testing out their business plan and product lines. Additionally, we make our event space available to client businesses for the purposes of holding catered events, classes, demonstrations, and similar activities. As a foodservice business incubator, we provide convenient services to new businesses including ingredient delivery and storage, mail acceptance, phone service, a shared office, and shared retail space. Lastly, we are available on a consulting basis to assist with business development including advice on business plans, local regulatory requirements, financing, insurance, budgeting, costing, marketing, and other foodservice operations.

As we build our client base, we will hold regular networking events amongst our clients as well as public showcase events for the benefit of our client partners.
