The Food Corridor is enabling efficiency, growth, and innovation in local food. They do this by connecting
food businesses with available commercial food assets. Their software, used by the nation’s top shared-use
kitchens, allows commercial kitchens to streamline scheduling, invoicing, and payments; manage multiple
equipment and space calendars; store and track client compliance documents; communicate with clients;
track storage inventory; and more. In addition, food businesses can find and book commercial kitchens,
equipment, commissaries, processors, co-packers, and food storage spaces. The Food Corridor also
facilitates the Network for Incubator and Commissary Kitchens (NICK) community. thefoodcorridor.com
