EMPOWERING THE
FUTURE OF FOOD

Welcome to The Business of Food.
We're about the business of food businesses

About

We exist to expand the growth and success of businesses in the food and beverage industry.

It's simple. We're passionate about food and entrepreneurship.

 

The food industry offers an accessible and wide-reaching socio-economic platform for communities.

But there's a gap. Yes, businesses need funding, resources and access to market. But that doesn't guarantee sustainable growth or longevity.

 

So what does? A deeper, more powerful foundation of -

knowledge on how to run their business; compounded by

supportive community to lean on.

That's where we come in.

Relevant. Viable. Efficient. You.

We provide relevant knowledge, and engaged support to empower food businesses to be the best version they can be. Sustainable success means they need to be customer relevant, financially viable, operationally efficient, and committed to their path.

Through food business accelerator programs, masterclasses, workshops, community networks and one-on-one coaching, we offer industry-specific business understanding, like-minded community, and mindset mentorship.

Designed for your needs & the needs of your entrepreneurs.

"I had the pleasure of working with Angelique at the V&A Waterfront where she served as Makers Landing Incubator Manager. She was instrumental in founding and co-ordinating our Kitchen Incubator Program where she had to act as mentor, project manager and collaborator for our first 4 cohorts that went through the incubation process."
