About:
About Spice Kitchen Incubator is adding new flavor to Salt Lake City by providing aspiring food entrepreneurs with resources to build viable businesses. Story Spice ( Supporting the Pursuit of Innovative Culinary Entrepreneurs) Kitchen Incubator is a new project of the International Rescue Committee (IRC), in partnership with Salt Lake County. It is a business incubator that brings together refugees and other disadvantaged community members interested in starting a full or part-time food business. Participants will develop successful food businesses, preserve their culinary traditions and share their talents with the Salt Lake County community. The National Business Incubation Association defines a business incubator as a comprehensive assistance program targeted to help start-up and early-stage firms with the goal of improving their chances to grow into healthy, sustainable companies. Spice Kitchen Incubator will ensure members have affordable access to commercial kitchen space to learn the basics of commercial kitchen operations, proper food-handling procedures and other steps involved in building a sustainable food business. The Salt Lake Tribune in December 2012 said of the SLC kitchen incubator program: “Incubator kitchen is not in Webster’s Dictionary. But if it were, it might use words like ‘fantastic foreign food’ to describe a program that seeks to teach refugees and others how to succeed in the restaurant business. Oh, and one more thing — it requires a commercial kitchen where trainees can hone their skills.” Program Elements Access to Commercial Kitchen Space Subsidized kitchen space will be provided to ensure access for participants and other community members. Workshops Workshops will be offered to participants and the general public on various aspects of food business and cooking. These events will build community, raise the profiles of the entrepreneurs and raise funds for the program. Access to Markets and Market Positioning Participants will be connected to market opportunities, market partners, and SPICE Kitchen Incubator co-branding for the mainstream customer base. Industry-Specific Technical Assistance & Mentorship Partnering with current micro-enterprise efforts for refugees and local restauranteurs and food industry professionals a network of dedicated professionals will provide free or subsidized technical assistance in marketing, operations and product development. Access to capital via micro- and small-business loans will also be provided. Donate Here! https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1WKIHVZO0DWMF/ref=cm_wl_rlist_go_v?
