From Kitchen to Commerce

Enabling women
to build home-based 
food businesses

We support women who have a passion for cooking and want to turn their skills into a profitable home-based food business. Our Women’s Food Entrepreneurship Program provides training, resources, and a digital platform to help women achieve financial independence by selling food from home.

With the rise of home-based food businesses, an industry that has seen a 30% growth in the UK post-pandemic, our program equips women with the necessary skills, certifications, and marketing strategies to start and sustain a successful business.

Many women with exceptional culinary skills face barriers such as lack of business knowledge, regulatory hurdles, and limited marketing expertise.
