Kitchen Membership

More than just a shared kitchen, Sisterhood Kitchen Collective is a community centered on women of color in the food industry, and open to every food entrepreneur who shares our mission. Here, women create, grow, and thrive together. Our 2,095-square-foot commercial kitchen is built for small food businesses, with steam kettles, convection ovens, a six-burner range with griddle, walk-in cold storage, and plenty of stainless prep space. Our sanitation and food safety standards let you focus on making high-quality, culturally inspired products.

Located in North Portland, the kitchen gives members easy access to production, distribution partners, and customers. Members book and manage kitchen time through The Food Corridor. Our partnership with the Food Innovation Center connects members to resources for product development, sensory testing, and packaging.

Membership means joining a network of food entrepreneurs who support one another. Members get in-house expertise, including CPG consulting to help scale products and prepare for retail. Whether you're launching your first venture or growing an established business, this is where creativity, collaboration, and opportunity come together. Take the next step: schedule a tour, and bring a small sample of your product!
