No. We’ve designed this incubator space to function as a turn-key kitchen; all you need to do is show up and get ready for service. Our goal is to support the launch of local food businesses by lifting the financial hurdle of rent when starting out.

ATB Wealth’s generosity allows us to offer the space to successful applicants free of charge. The only costs associated with program participation are ingredients and supplies needed for product preparation.

This is one path participants may choose, but it’s not the only way to grow. Gather Collective Kitchen is meant to meet you where you’re at, whether you’ve developed a food product you want to see on grocery store shelves or you’re after feedback on a new menu item.

Absolutely! Drop us a line at hello@gatherlocalmarket.ca to set-up a time.
