Food Web
Food Web is a kitchen rental platform that helps kitchen owners generate additional revenue by listing their underutilized space for short-term and flexible use.
The platform streamlines the process of renting out kitchen facilities by handling discovery, scheduling, insurance, and payments, making it easier and more efficient for owners to safely and confidently share their space.
For renters, Food Web provides access to licensed kitchens needed for a variety of purposes, including:
– Food entrepreneurs producing goods for farmers’ markets
– Caterers preparing for events
– Pop-up chefs hosting dining experiences
– Instructors running cooking classes or workshops
Food Web has partnered with RANS to offer members 20% off the transaction fee on our platform.
Food Web supports the food & beverage industry in Nova Scotia by improving access to essential infrastructure, reducing barriers to entry, and helping existing facilities generate additional value from underused space.
– Increases access to commercial kitchens: Provides food entrepreneurs, caterers, farmers’ market vendors, and small producers with flexible access to licensed kitchen space needed to legally prepare and scale food products.
– Unlocks new revenue for kitchen owners: Helps restaurants, community kitchens, schools, and institutional kitchens monetize unused daytime, evening, or seasonal capacity through short-term rentals.
– Supports business creation and growth: Lowers startup costs by removing the need for immediate investment in a full-time commercial kitchen, enabling more people to launch food businesses.
Food Web was built by two Nova Scotians, Justin & Keegan.
Justin Andrews is a Halifax born Chef, who has worked in food for over 15 years. From restaurants across the city, to farms and selling veggies at the Seaport Market.
Keegan Francis is software engineer from Truro, and is the tech guy behind Food Web. You’ll often find him climbing at Seven Bays, or weekly at the Halifax Brewery Farmers Market.
