STOCK POT is November’s Community Partner Highlight
STOCK POT is a for-profit, social impact company with a threefold mission:
- Provide high-quality, culturally appropriate, affordable school meals and prepared meals that tap into the cultural heritage of food entrepreneurs and serve economically disadvantaged school-age kids.
- Foster food entrepreneurship among the ethnically and culturally diverse population of greater Boston.
- Act as economic engine for the city of Malden and greater Boston (employment, wealth creation).
How does STOCK POT support food entrepreneurs?
Stock Pot enables the birth and development of food entrepreneurs by making their kitchen infrastructure available to them at a fraction of the cost of developing their own kitchen. A rental fee is charged for access to the kitchen. The rental fee is a function of time in the kitchen, size of team and storage requirements.
Some support services are also provided to member tenants. Including some basic support advice as part of companies’ membership at Stock Pot. Such basic support services include permitting, operations design, staff recruiting, and introduction to potential partners such as corporate brokering customers, farmers as suppliers, farmers markets managers, real estate partners, and legal services providers. More advanced services are provided for an additional fee in the following areas: financing (both debt and equity), accounting, marketing, and business development.
