"A nonprofit food business incubator that focuses on BIPOC- and women-owned businesses and partnered with the catering company in 2022 on the Community Table program to help diversify and support local food entrepreneurs." - Erika Adams
"As a Dorchester-based nonprofit incubator, CommonWealth Kitchen helps food entrepreneurs launch and grow their brands by removing major barriers — like construction costs, equipment purchases, and fixed rent — and by providing turnkey retail outlets and a built-in customer base; its director of communications, Bonnie Rosenbaum, highlights that this approach enables talented but under-resourced immigrant-run businesses to expand and create jobs, and CommonWealth has previously used a Kendall Square kiosk to help operators such as Jamaica Mi Hungry scale up." - Terrence Doyle
"A local nonprofit food incubator that provides commercial-kitchen resources and support for early-stage food businesses; it is partnering with a neighborhood restaurant project to supply affordable pop-up space and incubation assistance for local food entrepreneurs." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"A Dorchester-based non-profit incubator that supports new food businesses by operating a commercial kitchen and commissary that houses nearly four dozen ventures, including food trucks, caterers, and other startups. It has taken over a kiosk near the Kendall Square ice rink on a three-year lease to showcase resident businesses on a rotating basis, offering pop-up opportunities for incubator members (partners such as the Dining Car have previously appeared in the space). The organization runs its core operations out of Dorchester and is distinct from a nearby restaurant with a similar name." - Dana Hatic
"Commonwealth Kitchen, a Dorchester-based non-profit kitchen that serves as an incubator for numerous local food businesses, has taken over a kiosk in Kendall Square (300B Athenaeum St., Cambridge — near the ice rink) for at least the next three years." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
