About HomeCook
We partnered with HomeCook based in Washington, D.C. to provide you with this exclusive marketing opportunity. This is their story:
The COVID-19 pandemic turned the food industry upside down. The entire industry was shut down overnight, with no way to return properly. HomeCook founders, Tayana Harrison and Hassan Badru, discovered this struggle after many of their culinary industry friends went from running successful culinary businesses or working in restaurants to becoming food entrepreneurs and cooking out of their homes.
However, at some point, they needed to grow beyond their home kitchen but couldn’t find a commercial kitchen with flexible hours at an affordable price. On the flip side, many restaurants and commercial kitchens struggled to open their doors again with the proper protocols, and then once they did, they were met with less demand for their kitchen to remain open.
HomeCook's mission is to connect food entrepreneurs to commercial kitchens, provide industry insights to everyone in the industry, and connect others in the industry so everyone can learn and enhance their business.
You will learn much more about HomeCook in this training!
