Cook your way to success, cheaply

A kitchen incubator is the culinary version of a conventional business incubator, and provides a cheaper alternative to equipping a kitchen for your new food business. Instead of doling out tens of thousands to set up a dedicated workspace, aspiring caterers, bakers and specialty-food makers can utilize a kitchen incubator at fees averaging around $20 per hour. Add the cost of storage, and the price of using an incubator is still a steal!

Some kitchen incubators go a step further and offer other services such as business plan development and nutritional analyses. So get your food handlers license and product liability insurance and you are all set to start cooking your way to success in one of these kitchen incubators featured on Businessweek.com.
