Food - Start-up

[ComPropSolicitor]

In terms of start-ups and those concerning food. Is there any specific way of getting a chef or other food producer or company to make a batch of X product once a week until such point in time as the business grows sufficiently to start looking at leases a commercial kitchen to fulfil orders. I would have thought that there would be some sort of solution as companies must hire out the production of their products or at least have something in place but not really sure. I have a client that wants to take the plunge that's all with a relatively creative product that will be mail order - i.e. there's no existing bakery or deli to produce it.

A couple of years ago me and a bunch of guys did this for a vegan meal-prep startup, its since been acquired.

I headed over to here - which is where I met my co-founders and my vegan chefs.

If you're in London you can use existing premises, we had the option to use a kitchen of an already running restaurant.

Or you might want to try this.

Yes, existing kitchens may have capacity to be used.

Some of the small food producers may have capacity too.

Hi, without knowing what the product is I can’t say for sure but this is *potentially* something i could help with. Feel free to PM to discuss if you’d like.
